Profile
Smell
Fresh like the wind coming off the ocean with a beautiful floral bouquet of citrus blossom, lemon-lime verbena and honeysuckle, characterized by aromas of citrus and tropical fruits. Perfect for a day by the beach.
Taste
Full-bodied with a beautiful creamy texture and expressive but well-integrated oak, this wine is bursting with flavours of ripe starfruit, pineapple, mango, honeydew melon and peach. The oak leads into nutty hazelnut and almond flavours with hints of vanilla, toffee and crème brûlée on the finish.
Pairing
Full bodied and buttery, this classic California Chardonnay is the perfect pairing for tuna belly, shrimp cocktail, or fried calamari.
Aromas and Flavours
Mango
The satisfaction of finding that sweet spot of ripeness in this tropical fruit.
Coconut
Need a vacation? Transport yourself to the beach, with a tropical bevvy in a coconut shell.
Honeycomb
Sweet, sticky, creamy goodness buzzing with underlying floral and earthy notes.
Apple
From Granny Smith to Red Delicious, apple makes for a delightfully crisp aroma.
Vanilla
A sweet spice aroma that indicates oak-ageing - think vanilla bean frappuccino!

Description
Inspired by their love for surfing the California coast, a friendship started over a few good glasses of wine between Bill Price III and Prema Behanowners. They decided to start a winery together that encompassed their love of nature. The winery focuses on the elements of water, soil and sunlight using organic farming practices, intending to be one of the most environmentally-conscientious brands in the world. The winery was named Head High, the term California surfers use to describe a big wave, the one every surfer hopes to challenge and surf through to the end. This is synchronous with what they strive to obtain in their winemaking journey. The wave they describe as Head High is perfectly emulated on their website with a picture of one of their favourite surf legends and brand ambassadors, fifteen-time World Surf Champion Zane Kekoa Schweitzer. Hold your glass of Head High, and cheers to this delicious Chardonnay! Best served at 12°C, and enjoyed over the next 8 years.
