Sauternes, Bordeaux, France Chateau Clos le Comte Vintage Throughout 2005, the climate was ideal for the vine s growth and encouraged the development of fruit with ideal maturity.

4 Sauternes, Bordeaux, France Chateau Clos le Comte Vintage Throughout 2005, the climate was ideal for the vine s growth and encouraged the development of fruit with ideal maturity. Harvest began on 20 th September with an initial selection of superb, healthy, high-quality fruit. An anxious month of waiting followed as we witnessed a very rare phenomenon, the entire crop becoming infected with botrytis. It was a slow process but thankfully the weather remained favourable with cool nights and sunny afternoons allowing ripening to progress gently but steadily. Eventually we were able to gather the grapes with exceptional levels both of balance and concentration! Tasting Note: Cuvée Céline 2005 The wine s aromas are characterised by wonderfully ripe, concentrated and complex fruit. The rich bouquet contains abundant aromas of dried fruits, almonds, apricots, fresh citrus and peach blossom. In the mouth the wine is well structured with a viscous, unctuous density resulting from the high levels of botrytis. Beautiful acidity confers an excellent lively freshness on the wine. Spicy notes on the long finish belie the wine s excellent ageing potential.

South Australia, Australia We envied our French and Italian mates who made just the wines they wanted to make. With no money to set up our own wineries, we just made a few barrels in garages.

We got backing and set up 'Red Heads Studio in an old curry restaurant we bought on the road out of McLaren Vale. Red Heads was just the name of the restaurant. Great name! We kept it.

British, American, Aussie and even French customers love the idea of these red wine 'heads' fanatically working away through the night making the great little wines they always wanted to make.

10 South Australia, Australia We envied our French and Italian mates who made just the wines they wanted to make. With no money to set up our own wineries, we just made a few barrels in garages. Fantastic wines came out of tin sheds! Wine shippers in the UK and the US loved the stuff. We got backing and set up 'Red Heads Studio in an old curry restaurant we bought on the road out of McLaren Vale. Red Heads was just the name of the restaurant. Great name! We kept it. This is now where the keenest winemakers come after work to 'do their thing'. British, American, Aussie and even French customers love the idea of these red wine 'heads' fanatically working away through the night making the great little wines they always wanted to make. In just a few short years, Red Heads Studio Winery has cemented itself as producing some of the most exciting and cutting edge wine brands ever seen. In addition, the wine itself has been given the thumbs up from some of the world s most influential critics. As the hilarious label says, Hear No Evil, See No Evil, Taste No Evil. A saturated ruby/purple color is accompanied by aromas and flavors of blackberries and licorice in this medium to full-bodied, classic Australian fruit bomb. Pure, ripe, and undeniably delicious...90/100 (2004 vintage) - Robert Parker Jnr. The Wine Advocate Oct Yard Dog Red South Australia ($10; 55% petit verdot, 30% cabernet sauvignon and 15% merlot): Deep ruby. Powerful cherry and plum aromas are brightened by minerals and dried flowers. Strong bitter cherry and dark berry flavors are nicely framed by dusty tannins and pick up a bitter fruit pit quality on the back end. Finishes with youthful tannic grip and impressive persistence. More serious and structured than just about any other wine at this price I tried this year. Believe it or not, this will reward a few years of bottle aging.
