RedHeads Monte 2022
Barossa Valley
Loading...
Pure Montepulciano from the Barossa? That must be a first! It's from a single vineyard in the west of the Barossa, so good this vintage it was bottled solo. From the great RedHeads winery, and aged for 9 months in oak barrels, it's darkly fruity.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.
But don't worry, you'll find plenty more handpicked wines here.

The Wine
RedHeads started in 2002 in the McLaren Vale, encouraging young winemakers to work there in their spare time and make one-off, single-barrel masterpieces that normally they could only dream of. It's moved addresses a number of times, but in 2016 they put down real roots in the Barossa, with a superb, eco-focussed winery, solar-powered and nearly self-sufficient in water. They pride themselves on rescuing exceptional parcels of grapes from grower-mates, and making one-off stunners. Grapes for the Monte come from a small vineyard in Pindarri, western Barossa. It's a parcel the team usually use in R'Dotto Royale, but in 2022 it begged to be bottled solo. Aged in French and American oak for 9 months, this is darkly fruity with a savoury edge.
