Angove Organic Shiraz Cabernet 2020 (Australia)
- Subtle oak
- Dark cherry
- Cassis & chocolate
- Soft finish
Inky purple red in the glass. Dark cherry, cassis and plum on the nose. The palate takes a lead from the aromas with chocolate, subtle oak developing and a soft, fruit filled finish.
Angove Family Winemakers is one of Australia’s leading Organic winemakers. Sourced from our own Organically certified Nanya vineyard and premium certified Organic growers in the McLaren Vale region.
2020 was a challenging vintage on many fronts. Frosts were followed by windy conditions during flowering and then a hailstorm that ripped through the region causing significant damage in early November just as the vines were hitting their prime ripening period. Thankfully, the Angove Organic Vineyard was spared much of the destruction that occurred elsewhere but yields were still significantly down. Stable, dry conditions occurred from December onwards keeping disease pressure under control and with good canopy management the vines were able to ripen their precious cargo to perfection with harvest beginning in late February and continuing to early March. Whilst yields were significantly down, 2020 will be remembered as a vintage of extremely good quality.
The grapes for this wine were harvested at night to make sure that they were as cool as possible. Crushed to both rotary and ‘sweeparm’ fermenters the grapes were then allowed to macerate for 2 days before inoculation and fermentation. Pressed off skins when optimum flavour and colour levels were achieved and allowed to go through the second malolactic fermentation. Stored on oak until assemblage the wine has then had minimal handling prior to filtration for bottling at our certified Organic winery.
Food Pairing: Red meat, cheeses or vegan ravioli.
