Engine Room Motif Label Shiraz Mataro Grenache 2012
About the wine
Silver Medallist!
- Another cracker from Hamish, this blended savoury wine brings together the best attributes of the famous McLaren Vale Shiraz, coupled with Lanhorne Creek Mataro and some stunning McLaren Vale Grenache to tie the package together.
- A lovely deep red in colour with a bright crimson hue, this wine displays a delightful bouquet of lifted rose petals, spice and Turkish delight.
- The engaging palate is spicy and savoury with rich plum fruit, lovely soft, velvety tannins and a lingering finish... yum!

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!
