The 2023 Vinden Headcase Shiraz Nouveau offers a fresh take on Hunter Valley Shiraz, crafted by the innovative Angus Vinden.
This nouveau style Shiraz is light and vibrant, a departure from the traditional, more robust Hunter Valley Shiraz. It’s made from grapes sourced from the Vinden vineyard, planted in 1995, and the Stoney Broke Vineyard. Wild fermented with 10% whole bunches and 90% whole berries, this wine was matured in concrete tanks and neutral French oak barrels.
The result is a crisp, perfumed Shiraz with bright red fruit flavors and a touch of spice. Its lively acidity and light body make it perfect for enjoying slightly chilled, especially on a warm day.
A cheerful, easy-drinking red that brings a modern twist to a classic variety!
