My Other Self Big Bang Cabernet 2014
About the wine
The cosmic beginning of a red lover's dream!
- This scrumptious wine will mesmerise you with lingering aromas and a savoury yet juicy palate. Layers of berry dance hand in hand with smooth tannin and an edgy finish.
- Great Southern is one of the most isolated wine making regions in the world. The few colourful characters playing the game in the far south tip of Western Australia are completely committed to trail blazing, adventurous winemaking that sings out the ancient nutrients of the soils.
- Gary knows stuff, and most importantly he knows that this Cabernet Sauvignon is a value packed, flavoursome party for your tastebuds. Under $12 for Angels is unheard of for this region, this vintage will race out the door!
Best before
Fresh and ready now, or age for 3-5 years to let it develop a more savoury character.
Serving advice
Twist the top and enjoy at room temperature! 1/2 hour of breathing before drinking will let the layers open up.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Gary Stokes
Gary’s grappled with grapes all over the world from Australia and New Zealand to Abruzzo, Italy, where it was enchanting old-world vineyards that won him over. He now has over 25 years of winemaking wisdom up his sleeve!
- Stints at top wineries including Hardy’s, Stonehaven and Yarra Burn, and an eagerness to roll up his sleeves and learn every aspect of the trade, helped sharpen his skills. He’s a man who understands the magical transformation that occurs from grape to bottle, knowing when to get involved and when to let the fruit be the star of the show!
- After his winemaking compass finally settled on the Great Southern region of Western Australia, Gary got Naked in 2014 and began crafting honest, down to earth wine for Angels with his lighthearted label, My Other Self.
