About the wine
Old vine Carignan from a registered historic vineyard in Northern California
- Carignan usually calls Spain, France and Italy home, but when it's grown stateside with ample sunshine, this red is a mind blowing, food-friendly wine exploding with flavors like cherry, blueberry and a touch of savory spice.
- Macario long dreamed of making wine from this sandy-soil vineyard planted in the 1890s by Azorean immigrants. Angels made his dream happen! With your funding, he secured enough fruit to make a special limited-release of single-variety Old Vine Carignan.
- Other wines from the Evangelho vineyard are famous – and sell for famous prices. This is a steal of a deal for a rare single-vineyard red – and it’s worth the investment!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Macario Montoya
- Macario’s been a cellar rat doing all the grunt work at super premium wineries in Napa and Sonoma. But it's always Cab Cab Cab.
- He's gotten a lot of attention for using Mediterranean grapes in California. But he keeps hearing that his wines are "too edgy for the market to handle".
- He's just edgy enough for the Angels, and we are stunned at what Mediterranean grapes can do in Californian soil with the guidance of an experienced winemaker.
