Flavor Profile
RedHead Studios is one of Australia’s hottest wineries and their newest release, Good Cabernet, is good in every way possible…in the glass, with food, for the world…and good is an understatement.
It all started with a group of revolutionary winemakers who banded together to moonlight in a humble shed and make the kind of small-batch wines they wanted to make. Growers started bringing pick-up loads of their best grapes, “rescuing” them from the big blends.
RedHeads quickly earned a great reputation, Master of Wine Jancis Robinson writing, “this operation is as serious as a heart attack.” The wines became so popular, the cellar outgrew its home. After moving from shed to shed, RedHeads bought its own vineyard in the Barossa Valley and a built a state-of-the-art, off-the-grid, solar-powered winery.
They’ve since earned two major Green Awards from The Drinks Business, along with national environmental awards and a NASAA Organic certification.
Good Cabernet is an unbelievably good wine. The majority of the grapes come from the premium Cabernet regions of Coonawarra and Langhorne Creek. After fermentation, head winemaker Alex Trescowthick used French oak barrels to give the final blend delicate vanilla notes, as well as American oak, which added notes of coffee and smoke.
Get ready for an intense bouquet of deep, dark-fruit notes and a palate that delivers layers of dense blackberry, cassis and currant, plus sumptuous vanilla-mocha notes on the long, smooth finish. It’s a fantastic match for char-grilled meats and veggies (hot off the barbie) or a beef stew in colder months.
RedHeads by name, green by nature. Good on ya, mates.
