When wine is stored in oak barrels, a percentage of that wine evaporates - winemakers call this the 'angels share'.

What is left, is their gift to us...

Ambriel is the angel of communication, and guides us to truth and clarity. Ambriel is also considered to be an angel of general protection, and presides over the sun sign of Gemini and the month of May.    
The vineyard's crop has always been very low –- usually two tonnes or less. From this small crop we get intense flavoured grapes, because the vine is working to develop the flavour in a smaller number of bunches.
18 months in French & American barrels have developed a rich, chocolaty Cabernet full of deep mulberries & blackberries, finishing with a long blackcurrants & cream palate. the 5 years we have rested it for have let these flavours develop.

A new vintage, and this wine is massive for its price. Hold the bottle up to the light to see how dense it is if you don't believe me.

TASTING NOTES- More intense than the 2005, this wine could not be mistaken for anything but Coonawarra, with intense blackberry and mocha neatly balanced with the vanilla from the French oak barrels. It finishes with an extremely long palate of dried mulberries and cigar box. Like all Koonara reds, this wine has a balanced sweetness to the finish, but has been fermented dry with no residual sugar, showing just how good the quality of the fruit was. The dense fruit and the soft tannins with allow this wine to age well until 2024.

The 2005 was a fantastic wine, but this should be even better again, make sure you try some soon.
