This is just the second release of the dense, spicy Barossa Shiraz from RedHeads’ own estate. Since the start, the team have been winning Trophies and Golds galore. From their own nurtured vineyard, this is a punchy, full flavoured, barrel aged red.
We're sorry, this wine is sold out.

The Wine
For 16 years RedHeads have been making pioneering wines in various shed wineries across McLaren Vale and the Barossa. In that time they’ve picked up Trophies and more than 100 Golds. Until last year they exclusively sought out the best growers to rescue small parcels of top quality grapes for their wines. They still do this, but now have a vineyard of their own too. They’ve put down roots in Angaston in the Barossa, with an 8 hectare vineyard and a new, totally eco-friendly cellar. With the grapes, they make a single estate wine – the 1888. It’s named after the cottage dating from 1888 they took on with the property, the oldest building in the area. Handcrafted and barrel matured, this red is tasty now and even better if you tuck it away.
