Out of my Head | Ochota Barrels
‘Out of My Head’ is named after one of Amber and Taras’ favourite songs by a 90s Adelaide punk band ‘The Exploding White Mice.’ This very small production replaces the Fugazi Grenache for this vintage, as summer hail devastated the Fugazi vineyard. Fruit for this nervy, fleshy Grenache comes from a Wait family vineyard just a few hundred meters up the hill from the Fugazi block in Blewitt Springs.
