About the wine
.
- Carmen is one of South Africa's finest wine makers, as one taste of her superb Shiraz - made especially for our Angels - quickly illustrates.
- South Africa may have come late to the Shiraz ball, but it's played catch up quickly, and now produces some of the best in the world. This one, with its dark, rich plum fruit punch and smokey oaky, peppery finish is a delicious example.
- Punchy, explosive and with all the weight of a dozen half-backs, the only way to improve this wine is to drink it with a bit of cow that has been briefly shown the grill. A meat-eater's idea of heaven in a glass.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Carmen Stevens
- Angels funded the first black woman to graduate in winemaking in South Africa, beating all the odds. And you gave her a shot at making her own wine.
- She works for a super-premium, top drawer, American-owned, no expense spared, mega award-winning winery in South Africa, and you're going to get access to all her talent at a fraction of the cost.
- And with Angel funding (Over $200,000 invested in just 8 hours!), Carmen is branching out and making her own project wines. Just for you!
