WMC19: Wine Education Session With Angove Family Winemakers

Angove’s Chief Winemaker Tony Ingle will lead this session. We will taste the first-of-its-kind Hopes End Brandy Barrel Aged Cabernet Sauvignon. We will then participate in and learn from two three-flight vertical tastings: first will be the Angove McLaren Vale Family Crest Grenache Shiraz Mourvèdre GSM and second will be the Angove McLaren Vale Warboys Vineyard Shiraz. Single Vineyard, Organic, Biodynamic and multi award winning, the back vintages of these wines will come from the Angove museum.
