Personalised HEAD Wines Old Vine Shiraz 2024 14.3% 750ml

TASTING NOTES

PALATE

The 2024 has an extra layer of richness and texture and is our finest to date – it will blossom when approached by richer protein dishes.

WINEMAKERS COMMENTS

I am privileged to work with small parcels of fruit from old, dry-grown, hand-pruned and picked vineyards across the Barossa. We were utterly spoilt for choice in 2024 with many blocks across the Barossa & Eden Valley making a strong statement for inclusion in the ‘Old Vine’ Shiraz. At Ebenezer (Planted 1950s) we used the Riebke Schrapel Block as the base, then Mengler’s Hill Block 8b & 12 (Planted 1960s), Mattschoss Trial Hill (Planted 1940s) and finally a touch of Cabernet Sauvignon from Moculta (Planted 1980) & Ebenezer (Planted 1950).

VINIFICATION

2t open top, indigenous yeast, two week ferment, hand-plunging & pump-pover twice daily.

MATURATION

On fine lees, 15% new French oak with 228L, 300L & 500L.
