The Wine
Former winner of the Barossa Shiraz Trophy, Dogs of the Barossa is the story of a young dog in an old dog’s world. The ‘dog’ in this case is RedHeads: a studio proving its worth in ancient Barossa. Having led the pack in the McLaren Vale, site of the original cellar, RedHeads is now showing that, set among some of the most iconic names of Australian wine (Henschke, Penfolds, Wolf Blass), their wines still stand out. The ethos of this cellar has always been to innovate. It's why they're as proud of their eco-awards as they are the numerous medals on their wines (and cult following of loyal customers). This powerful Shiraz delivers gorgeous ripe blackberry and damson flavour of real power and depth. Decant early and serve with peppered steak.
"A beast of a wine. Simply stunning. Superb - heavy dense blackberry fruit - absolutely delicious"
