As you might expect from a wine called Dan'Jango, this is no ordinary wine. Compared to other Barossa Shiraz, it's a step up thanks to the incredible selection of vineyards. Vibrant, deep, dark berry fruit and smoky spice at their finest.

More about RedHeads:
It all began in the 1990s with Tony Laithwaite, who flew a group of Australian winemakers (the "Flying Winemakers") to France to show the veterans some new tricks. This planted the seed 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 free from corporate shackles and make "real" wines, their own way. Small batches, hands-on, interesting blends, and big flavors.

Now firmly established in the Barossa, RedHeads sources premium parcels of grapes that were destined to be used for bulk wine production.

Sommy Pairing Beschrijving Deze 2022 Dan’Jango Shiraz levert levendig en diep donker bessig fruit met rokerige specerijen, zwarte peper en stevige tannines die de 14,5% alcohol mooi dragen, waardoor hij vol en aanwezig in de mond is. Daardoor sluit hij uitstekend aan bij rundvlees, lam, kazen, stoofschotels en barbecue, omdat het rijpe fruit en de rokerige kruidigheid vet en umami tegenwicht bieden; extra geslaagd met gegrild of gecharrd vlees, peperkorst op steak, langzaam gegaarde lamsbout of rijke, langzaam gestoofde wild- of runderstoofschotels en bij rijpe harde kazen.

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”
