Winery Tasting Notes

Appearance: Deep garnet-magenta with a vibrant red rim.

Nose: Aromatic and complex, showing cassis, blackcurrant, dark cherry and ripe raspberry, layered with savoury notes of leather, cured meats, herbs, warm earth and a subtle hint of smoky bacon.

Palate: Concentrated and intense, with a rich core of dark berries and black fruit balanced by savoury spice and earthy complexity. Despite its power, the wine is remarkably focused and refined.

Texture & Structure: Silky, fine-grained tannins provide excellent structure, supported by bright acidity and well-integrated French oak. The palate has both muscle and finesse.

Finish: Long, persistent and beautifully balanced, with dark fruit, savoury herbs and earthy notes lingering on the finish.

Winery Profile

Very much a rising star, Alex Head has taken the long path to wine-making, starting with a degree in Biochemistry at Sydney University, then stints in fine wine retail, wholesale importers and auction houses. He followed this with vintage at a handful of superb Australian wineries including Torbreck and Tyrrells, before heading out on his own, with his first releases in 2008.

Already rated a 5-star producer by James Halliday and named one of his Top Ten Best New Wineries for 2011, Alex's wines are inspired by the wines of France's Cote Rotie, in particular, and are produced in quantities of at most one or two barrels.
