Deep and bright colours with a purple hue, the Optimist Shiraz also offers aromas of lifted satsuma plum, raspberry, violet flower, with a hint of cherry oak. The palate is bursting with bright fresh blue fruits, a rich middle palate with lots of satsuma plum and dark cherries. A long fine tannin structure throughout gives an excellent backbone to this food friendly style of Barossa Shiraz. Awards: • Trophy

We've been intently following Alex Head for a while now, producing a unique set eye opening Barossan wines, inspirationally drawn from his passion towards Northern Rhone Syrah. Soil and aspect is therefore every much key, imparting style and character and this new release Head Red is no exception. Judiciously used oak allows the deliciously juicy, dark and spicy fruit to shine with an impeccably moorish, savoury structure.

'I love this winepacked with dark and black fruit flavours, elegant but a wine that has real energy about itand while the flavours on the palate are rich & inviting, there is a savoury leanness to the wines structure that makes it such a good drink.' - Winemaker Kym Teusner. 'Good colour; the fragrant, berry-filled bouquet leads into a rich, multilayered palate with blackcurrant, mulberry and mocha flavours; the tannins are ripe, and the wine has all the ingredients for long cellaring. Eden Valley's climate is inherently more suited to cabernet than that of the Barossa Valley.' - 94 points | James Halliday, Australian Wine Companion.

Aroma: Complex ripe cherry and plum aromas on the nose. Palate: Rich black cherry and plum with liquorice and a hint of mint on the palate with length and finesse.

This is magnificently fruited and gloriously expressed on the nose showing blackberry, spiced plum, chocolate tart, cake spice and cedar characters. A sumptuous palate that is opulent and impressively weighted. The wine is powerfully graceful with a seamless flow to an impressively long engaging finish.
