Head Wines Head Red GSM Barossa Valley
A significant contribution of fruit from vines which are 100 years old make this one very special blend indeed. There’s a class and sophistication to what is a delicious medium bodied and brightly fruited red. Its savoury nature is so moreish and this really does offer a great alternate red wine drinking experience. Alex Head - Head Wine Winemaker - The Barossa Valley has been witness to the coming of a ‘new wave’ or ‘new breed’ of young talented winemakers. We’ve been intently following Alex Head throughout this time, producing a unique set eye opening Barossan wines, inspirationally drawn from his passion towards Northern Rhone Syrah. Soil and aspect is therefore very much key, imparting style and character and this new release Head Red is no exception.
Isolde Barossa Cabernet Sauvignon
GI: Craneford (Eden Valley) and Ebenezer (Barossa Valley). Dark scarlet red with black edge. Wonderfully ripe and fragrant, the nose is filled with dark plum, cassis and subtle toasted almond. Beautifully weighted, the intense fruit flavours of plum and blackcurrant are complexed by earthy tobacco and oak spice. An elegant and flavoursome wine of harmonious fruit and polished tannins. Matured in French oak (20% new) for 24 months (4 year air dried oak. Francois Frere and Taransaud Coopers – tight grain.) Perfect for herbed lamb or salt and pepper pork on greens. "So very Cabernet, this is a fab drink from the Barossa's Sorby Adams. Well priced, this is drinking superbly now but will also reward medium-term cellaring." Ken Gargett, Wine Pilot & The Vintage Journal Tristan & Isolde is a medieval tale of two star-crossed lovers, Knight Tristan and Princess Isolde, told from the 12th century. The Sorby Adams wine label honours John Couch Adams, an ancestor of Simon Sorby Adams, who mathematically proved Neptune's existence.
