Personalised Head Wines The Brunette Shiraz 2021 13.5% 750ml

**TASTING NOTES

REGION NOTES** In the 2021 vintage, the base shiraz comes from a vineyard planted circa 1965, in the Flaxman Valley at 480m altitude. The vineyard has a perfect easterly aspect and gradient to catch the morning sun and is shaded from the late heat of the day. The soils are lean, with clays, mixed ironstone and some scattered quartz, producing optimum conditions for dark, savoury fruits and fine, structured tannins.

GRAPES/BLEND 95% Shiraz, 5% Cabernet Sauvignon.
VINIFICATION 2t open top stainless steel, indigenous yeast, 10% whole-bunch, two week ferment, hand-plunging & pump-over twice daily. MATURATION On fine lees, 17 months in 30% new French 228L. RANGE NOTES Head Wines now works with a diverse range of up to 20 different Shiraz vineyards in the Barossa and Eden Valleys. To be considered part of 'The Brunette' a vineyard must perform amongst the few top vineyards each year and represent the 'dark-side' of Shiraz in the Barossa. In the vineyard we give every opportunity for the fruit to provide us with the tannins and concentration to make a structured and long-lived traditional Barossa Shiraz.
