The wine is then fermented in open fermenters and pumped two to three times a day for three weeks.

There are also nuances of dark chocolate and raspberry liqueur, as well as smoky cedar and vanilla notes. On the palate, the wine is velvety smooth, with a strong tannic structure and great density. A wine that leaves little to be desired in terms of complexity and fruit intensity.

According to the RedHeads winemaker, this red wine is a Spanish joke that turned out very well. The winemaker had spotted this unusual vineyard on a small family estate in One Tree Hill, a tiny hamlet nestled between the Barossa Hills and Adelaide. Not quite in the hills, as it gets quite warm during the day, but he gets a cool draft from the hills at night, which slows the ripening of the grapes... which explains the astonishingly deep red hue of the Vin Atus.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Quality wines from RedHeads\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nA young group of winemakers in McLaren Valley formed the RedHeads Studio winery. They are located in Tanuda, in the Barosso Valley of South Australia. It began in an old restaurant, where a group of young winemakers did everything they could to break away from the large wine cooperatives. They wanted to make their own wines in small volumes, focusing on quality. To this day, the winery continues to grow and has won over a considerable number of wine lovers, both nationally and internationally, with their expertise.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e 14 months of wood aging for the Vin Atus\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe RedHeads winery has a unique knack for finding fantastic, high-quality, flavorful grapes. They blend them gradually to create a wine with abundant character. The grapes for this Vin Atus are harvested by hand and fermented in open tanks, with the pulp regularly immersed by hand. The wine then undergoes extensive skin maceration to enhance its flavors. Finally, the wine is aged for 14 months in both new and used French and American oak barrels.\n\n\n\n The result is a delicious wine with aromas of plums and sour cherries, along with white pepper, vanilla, and spices. You can even smell Christmas in this red wine. It has silky tannins on the palate, supported by juicy fruit. This is followed by lingering sweet oak notes, left over from the oak aging. A beautiful wine that is definitely on our list of favorites.","brand":"Poot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42775797203023,"sku":"10747","price":14.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0594\/9358\/0879\/files\/redheads-vin-atus_10747.webp?v=1770120935"},{"product_id":"redheads-return-of-the-living-red","title":"RedHeads Return of the Living Red","description":"This red RedHeads Return of the Living Red Cabernet pays tribute to the Portuguese grape varieties that were planted throughout Australia about a century ago. They were used to create the excellent fortified wines that are still produced today, albeit in very small quantities. However, over the last 30 years, with encouragement from the Australian government, Portuguese varieties like Touriga have been removed and replaced by more common varieties like Shiraz and Chardonnay. Fortunately, for this Return of the Living Red, RedHeads has rediscovered these grape varieties and prepared them for a rare and exquisite red wine.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The growth of RedHeads winery\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe RedHeads winery is made up of a young group of winemakers from McLaren Valley. The estate is located in Tanuda in the Barosso Valley, South Australia. Their goal was to produce small-volume wines themselves, focusing on quality. To achieve this, they partnered with local winemakers, purchasing various grapes and experimenting with them. They recently acquired 10 hectares of their own Shiraz vineyard in the Barosso Valley.

Well, they succeeded, and they blended different vintages to create this style. Like a Zombie, they worked to get the best into the bottle, hence the code name \"Zombie\" on the label. The aroma reveals hints of black fruit, including blackberries, tobacco leaves, spices, vanilla, and oak. The palate is very powerful and full, with plenty of black fruit but intense hints of smoky licorice and spices.

But the wine produced by winemaker Dan Graham is of unparalleled quality, full-bodied and aromatic with a lively style. Both vineyards are close to the ocean, allowing the old vines to receive ample sunshine but also a tremendous amount of cooling sea breeze. The growing season is so long, and the bunches can develop into some of the finest in the Barosso region. Unfortunately, there are not many bunches available, making this red wine very scarce.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e Cabernet on a pedestal in this Esule\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThis wine is a modern twist on the story of the outcast. It's about being the outcast of life. In this story, Cabernet is the victim; both Sauvignon and Franc have been taken over by Shiraz. Both grape varieties are in the minority, but tasting them reveals that they undoubtedly stand alongside Shiraz, instead of being sidelined. That's why RedHeads remains true to these grape varieties and places them on a pedestal in this blend of two Cabernet grapes.\n\n\n\n\u003ch2\u003e The generous power and complexity of this Cabernet Franc\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\n \nThe entire wine is handcrafted, from harvest to pressing, using open fermentation in oak barrels.

Two of the most impressive are Coonawarra and Barossa. The latter is home to Yalumba's finest wines. Barossa is to what Bordeaux is to France: the very best Australian wines originate in the Barossa Valley. Unlike other Australian wine regions, Barossa can often be somewhat cooler, thanks to its unique terrain and unique location. This makes the climate much more pleasant, allowing classic French grape varieties to thrive here.
