Angus The Bull - Black Angus Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Ultra premium single vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon from Heathcote, Victoria. Meticulously crafted to enhance the enjoyment of premium meats.

Every great wine has a story, but Angus The Bull Black Angus Cabernet Sauvignon has something more—a personality. Bold without being brash, confident without being overpowering, this Australian Cabernet Sauvignon captures the spirit of the animal that inspired its name: strong, commanding, and impossible to ignore.

Origins

The Angus The Bull brand emerged in the early 2000s with a clear mission: to celebrate Australia's love affair with premium beef and exceptional Cabernet Sauvignon. Rather than creating another ordinary red wine, the founders sought to craft wines specifically designed to complement rich, flavorful cuts of meat. The concept quickly resonated with wine lovers around the world, helping Angus The Bull establish a reputation for approachable luxury and unmistakable Australian character.

At the heart of the range sits Black Angus Cabernet Sauvignon, a wine that represents the brand's most ambitious expression. Sourced from carefully selected vineyards in Victoria's acclaimed Heathcote region, the wine reflects one of Australia's most respected terroirs. Heathcote's ancient soils and warm climate provide ideal conditions for Cabernet Sauvignon, allowing grapes to develop remarkable concentration while retaining freshness and balance.

Winemaking

The winemaking process is guided by patience and precision. After harvest, the fruit undergoes fermentation designed to maximize color, flavor, and structure. Extended skin contact helps build the wine's signature depth, while maturation in French oak barrels adds layers of complexity and refinement. The result is a Cabernet Sauvignon that combines intensity with elegance—a balance that is often difficult to achieve.

Tasting

Dark red with crimson hues, lifted cassis, blackcurrant leaf and cedar. Ripe black fruits accompanied by a refreshing bright palate with classic Heathcote eucalypt-mint characters. Bold generous mid-palate displaying fruit intensity and ripe textured tannins. Exceptional concentration and purity combined with restrained structure and balance. This is a wine that can be enjoyed in its youth, but will also equally reward those with the patience to cellar for a further 6 – 10 years.
