A wine that captures the heart and soul of RedHeads history. The Back Shed is where passionate winemakers go to make the wines they really want to – including taking fruit from two different regions to achieve the balance they want. True artisanal winemaking ‘for the real love of it’ at its best. In this case using Grenache from McLaren Vale with Shiraz from the Barossa Valley. Delicious.

A dainty little number. Only 12% in alcohol, but its nose still sings of violets and subtle blue fruits, combining with varietal capsicum notes. Grippy tannins lie ready to meet a tasty osso bucco or slowly cooked lamb ragu. Enjoy now.

Vasse Felix produces fine Margaret River reds with great balance and style. This traditional blend of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon shows sweet mid-palate fruit with liquorice and spice and good tannin structure. Fantastic French oak integration enabling soft tannin complexity and a lovely length of flavour.

Padthaway on the South Australian Limestone Coast is a long, thin wine region not far north from the famous red wine region of the Coonawarra. The region benefits from a moderate Mediterranean climate and cooling ocean breezes that roll through. However, it can get quite warm during the day, much like the Barossa. The boldness and body of the warmer climate peppery Shiraz meets the lifted aroma of violets of the Touriga Nacional. The tannins have a touch of grippiness. All up, it’s an opulent, lush red.

Vibrant ruby red, with some purple. Aromas of red fruits and spice - typical of the variety, are lifted and an immediately striking characteristic. On the palate, spicy and savoury Nero d’Avola is balanced with some solid Shiraz fruit sweetness and depth. Some characteristic crispness on the finish leaves no doubt as to the wine’s origin. Vegan friendly.

Intense deep red with a purple edge. Plump, dark fruits, blueberry, spice and liquorish. Soft, rich, mouthcoating, balanced tannin, cured meats, wild spice, authentically Heathcote.

Peter Lehmann Shiraz is always a reliable Barossa Shiraz. The nose offers lashings of dark plum with an underlay of dusted chocolate and the palate is brimming with rich fruit flavours restrained by soft fine grained tannins.

Deep crimson purple. Bright lifted savoury bouquet of, spicy black fruits and pepper. The palate juicy and fresh with red, purple and black fruits with cool-grown pepper and spice. Medium bodied, fine tannin and balanced acidity. Fermented in small open top pots, then matured in mainly seasoned French oak barriques for 11 months. Enjoy now or over the next 2 to 8 years.
