About the wine
Small batch, hand-crafted delightful red
- This elegant small batch red started life as perfect little grapes from 14-yr-old vines in Woodside, a region of the cool Adelaide Hills of South Australia. It’s been open fermented with some whole bunches added for extra ‘oomph’.
- The wine is a super pretty vibrant purple colour, with strawberry and cherry flavours and a soft, velvety and lingering finish on your tongue - extremely satisfying!
- Premium Adelaide Hills Pinot Noir fruit, hand-crafted and barrel-matured, at this price = wow! Only 250 dozen were produced, so nab one quick or risk missing out on another of Joffa’s SA wonders.
Best before
Drink over 2-3 years with suitable cellaring - to enjoy the bright strawberry & cherry fruits enjoy over the next 12 to 18 months
Serving advice
1/2 breathing after opening will allow wine to open up nicely
Food match
Lemon and rosemary marinated salt bush lamb on the charcoal - perfect! Sides of rocket/pear/Persian fetta salad; cumin roasted potatos with crusty sourdough!
Contains sulphites
Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Geoff Thompson
The first winemaker in his family, Geoff got to grips with grapes in 2002 and left a promising career in photographic science to do something he was passionate about. Hard work and enviable talent saw him work his way up the wine-stained ladder to Senior Winemaker at the Tahbilk Group in Victoria, in charge of more than a million cases a year!
Building a reputation as a master blender, Geoff won a ton of gold medals and trophies for his wines - and developed an itch to branch out on his own, back in his McLaren Vale homeland. Angels helped him scratch it in 2013 when a phone call in a car park kicked off his dream to create wines under his own label for them!
With his winemaking wizardry and access to some of the best grapes in the country, Geoff has been wowing Angels with his sensational South Australian wines ever since. He’s caught the eye of the critics too. In 2022, his winery was awarded 4.5 stars in the iconic Halliday wine companion.
