2020 Redheads Studio Yard Dog Red

A very interesting wine this Yard Dog Red from the Australian winery RedHeads Studio . The story behind the special name Yard Dog (stray dog) is telling. In Australia, every street has one, a stray dog that was once someone's beloved pet but is now banished and infatuated, barking through streets and backyards looking for some attention and love. Give this dog some love and he will turn out to be a true friend while wagging his tail. The same goes for this wine, once loved and adored by the winemakers, later overlooked and sent out the back door of the winery. However, after some attention and love, the old friendship has blossomed again and this delicious fruity wine has been reinstated and has turned out to be a true friend for the real wine lover.

This red wine is a beautiful blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Petit Verdot. An accessible, easy-drinking fruity wine, lightly aged in oak barrels, which gives it a nice taste. Aromas of ripe fruit, beautiful red crimson in colour, a hint of cedar wood, silky tannins with a lively character and structure.

Tastes great with grilled meat and with a cozy barbecue, but also delicious on its own during a drink.
