The Cabernet and Shiraz grapes for this red are selected from top vineyards across South Australia.

The Shiraz grapes (Syrah) from the Barossa growing region give this Australian blend spicy blackberry notes, plus slightly peppery raspberry notes from Cabernet grapes ripened in cooler locations in McLaren Vale. The Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from cooler locations in the Padthaway region, characterizes the wine with beautiful blackcurrant notes. The bouquet of this composition is rounded out by nuances of vanilla and tobacco leaf. On the palate, the RedHeads The Red Sedan Cabernet/Shiraz is full and fruity, very soft, and with beautifully integrated tannins.
