RedHeads Whip-Hand 2020
Barossa-style punchiness in this fruit-to-boot, ripe Cabernet. Created by Alex Trescowthick and his stellar team at the super-eco RedHeads winery, this rich Aussie red is brimming with glorious 95-pt red fruits and vanilla spice from oak ageing.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.
