For years the Tscharke family has tended their premium Barossa vineyards to supply grapes to famous Penfolds. Today, however, Damien Tscharke is keen to keep the best grapes and make a wine of his own. Dark chocolatey plum with spicy length.
RedHeads have been making pioneering wines in various shed wineries. In that time they’ve picked up Trophies and over 100 Golds. They make a single estate wine – 1888. With kirsch, plum and raspberry, black olive, liquorice and spice.
Every vintage, winemaker Alan Kennett pulls out all the stops to create another sublime ‘Stump’. He combines Australia's two powerhouse grapes – Shiraz and Durif – to make a super-charged black red, packed with ripe velvety fruit layered with spice.
In the last four vintages this wine has won a total of five Golds and 93 points. It's a fabulous, rich, oak-aged red from John Quarisa, who blends the herby, liquorice and blackberry punch of Aussie Shiraz with the dark cassis of Cabernet.
