About the wine
A rare single-variety red from one of Northern California's historic vineyards
It may be old vine, but this rare red isn’t old fashioned. With aromas and flavors like bright red fruit, savory herbs and a finish oh-so soft and smooth, you’ll be saying more Mourvèdre, please.
Thanks to Angel funding, Macario sourced his grapes from 4th generation winegrowers in Oakley, California who cherish this grape style usually found in France and Spain. The grapes were handpicked from legacy head-trained vines in sandy soils – some 130 years old!
At a market price of $33.99 – Angels save $14! – this limited production wine from a historic vineyard will be gone in a flash!
Best before
This needs time. It's a baby and will be best in about 2-3 years.
Serving advice
Open and decant for about an hour.
Food match
Any hearty meat stew would be perfect.
Contains sulphites
Always check the label

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.
