Head Riesling '21

About the Wine: 

This wine exemplifies the characteristics of the Eden Valley region, combining refreshing acidity and pronounced minerality. From the Stonegarden vineyard, it captivates with intoxicating and concentrated flavours. The style is light and racy, showcasing the best of traditional white wines. On the palate, vibrant notes of lime and lemon intertwine, accompanied by delicate floral undertones. A subtle slate-like nuance adds complexity, while the presence of red apple lends a touch of fruitiness. The 2021 Head Riesling is a true testament to Alex Head's skill, capturing the essence of Eden Valley in every sip.

About the Producer:

Alex Head is the founder and winemaker of Head Wines. Alex fell in love with the northern Rhone Valley Shiraz while traveling through Europe's wine regions, particularly the Côte-Rôtie. Since, he has been inspired to recreate these Old World styles in the Barossa Valley. Alex uses fruit from unique elevated sites in the Barossa and Eden Valley, each offering different soil compositions and climates ideal for exploring contrasting styles. Alex carefully selects grapes from sustainably farmed vineyards, resulting in wines that reflect the elegance, balance, and complexity of their origins. Alex's goal is to share his fascination with Old World styles through the terroir of the Barossa region.
