As you would expect from a wine called Dan'Jango, this is no ordinary wine. Compared to other Barossa Shiraz, this is a step up thanks to its incredible selection of vineyards. Vibrant, deep, dark berry fruits and smoky spices at their best.

More about RedHeads:
It all started in the 1990s with Tony Laithwaite, who flew a group of Australian winemakers (the 'Flying Winemakers') to France to show the old hands some new tricks. Here the seed was planted for a new wave in winemaking.
They settled in McLaren Vale, South Australia in 2002, in an old restaurant called RedHeads! The location was used by emerging winemakers to break away from the corporate shackles and make "real" wines, in their own way. Small batches, hands-on, interesting blends and big flavors.
Now RedHeads is firmly established in the Barossa, sourcing premium plots of grapes that were intended to be used for bulk wine production.

Redheads Studio winery is located in South Australia in the town of Tanuda, in the Barossa Valley where the dedicated team behind Redheads work tirelessly, from the vine to the bottle and beyond, to ensure the wines can always be in their best condition drunk.
It all started with a few Aussie winemakers who went to France to show the 'old hands' some new tricks there. Australian wine had conquered the world in the 1970s and 1980s. That's why Tony Laithwaite brought some Aussies to France. It was there that the very beginning of RedHead's new viticultural movement was laid.
In a small shed in McLaren Vale, a former Indian restaurant, some winemakers took on the challenge of making their dream come true: making beautiful, creative wines in small volumes with primary focus on quality.
They wanted to make wines without being bothered by all kinds of business worries, which resulted in an explosion of creativity and experiments.
Meanwhile, winery Redheads is making great international progress and they still give young talents the opportunity to let their creativity and talents loose on the best grapes in the region. Redheads Wines says of itself: “A free-spirited, movement liberating the best grapes from the premium labels to make wines with soul, character and personality”
