From our tiny RedHeads wine studio in the Barossa, this four Gold winner combines a trio of Spanish grapes. Yet the playful Vin’atus (its name means ‘wine games’) is Aussie through and through with its dark, brooding cherry fruit and toasty length.

What RedHeads does best – searches out small parcels of fabulous quality grapes, brimful of flavour, then pieces them together, bit by bit, to handcraft a wine with abundant character and plenty of stylish panache. Our winemaker had spotted this unusual trio of Spaniards on a small family property in One Tree Hill, a tiny hamlet between the Barossa and Adelaide Hills. Not quite in the hills, it gets quite warm during the day, but there’s a cool draught from the Hills at night, which slows ripening and explains the amazing deep crimson hue of Vin’atus. Hand picked, destemmed and hand plunged (with effort!), and vinified in our traditional open-top fermenters, this is a hefty red, but velvet smooth. Ideal with lamb or rich rabbit stew.
