Head Wines The Brunette Shiraz 2022 Size::6 Bottle Case Mike BennieIn the 2022 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. Alex Head
