Head 'The Contrarian' Viognier '24 Semillon

Head 'The Contrarian' Viognier '24 SemillonAbout the Wine: 'The Contrarian' represents a remarkable expression of the Barossa, challenging conventional notions of Barossan wine with a distinct and creative approach. Having dedicated 16 years to working with Viognier, Alex embarked on a quest inspired by a visit to Chateau Grillet in 2013, aiming to emulate their style. In 2020, a small batch of the highest altitude Viognier grapes was carefully hand picked and processed using a blend of older

cranberries and lavender with a nice spicy lift from the 60% whole bunch fermentation

aiming to emulate their style

The team strikes a balance between scientific precision and artistic creativity
