About the wine
Not for the faint-hearted!
- Another delicious wine from Hamish Maguire, a 2012 Langhorne Creek Mataro. Not for the faint hearted, It's full, rich, ripe and brooding.
- This 'beast' demands food and is best suited to your favourite choice of protein.
- It's big, juicy and fruit driven with lovely soft, fine tannins to finish. A punchy wine and could be cellared to 2018 - a favourite in the office!

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Hamish Maguire
- Hamish was born into a respected winemaking family and raised among the McLaren Vale vineyards. His passion for the industry isn’t just down to family ties though, vintages in traditional wineries in Europe sealed his grape-induced fate.
- Hamish's 'day job' is overseeing his successful family business — a much respected and awarded Mclaren Vale winery. But he's a visionary and a rebel at heart, so in 2012, he joined the Naked Wines family to make Angels his ‘passion’ wines — Engine Room.
- His Engine Room wines are a product of imagination and a willingness to be different. These skillful blends of traditional with ‘alternative’ varieties, coupled with Angel backing, gives Hamish a creative outlet from the typical winemaking of the region to create something new and exciting. And it's made him one of our most popular winemakers in the process!
