2013 Wirra Wirra The Angelus Cabernet Sauvignon Museum Release

Halliday Wine Companion

From the four coolest districts of McLaren Vale; matured for 18 months in French barriques (20% new), usual rack and returns. Vivid hue; this is a beautifully weighted and structured, medium-bodied cabernet, showing how much synergy can be generated between place and variety; pure cassis fruit has the finest line of tannin support imaginable, line and length perfect.

Campbell Mattinson - The Wine Front

Twenty months in French oak. McLaren Vale cabernet sauvignon at its best. Filo tannin. Fine sheets of it, layer upon layer, wrapped around a pure filling of dusty/curranty fruit flavour. A wine of length, poise and fantastic promise.

James Suckling

A very handsome, ripe and vibrant cabernet that holds plenty of liquorice-scented cassis fruit aromas. The oak is nicely worked in and registers as an alluring, spicy layer, there's an almost slate-like stony edge too. The palate is laid out on fully ripened, long and flowing tannins, plenty of plush cassis and black cherry fruit flavors here, good balance and sapid appeal. Best from 2021.
