About the wine
- Sam made this using the very best grapes he could lay his hands on, and boy does he know what to do with top class fruit!
- Imagine dunking your finger in a pot of fresh bramble jam and you're there - fruity, vibrant and lick-your-lips-clean yummy.
- This is the wine Sam always dreamed of making, and your Angel backing helped him when he needed it most. A wine that tastes good, and does good too - all for under a tenner.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Sam Plunkett
- Legend is a word we sometimes overuse, but in Sam's case, it's true. Over in Oz he’s regarded as one of their greatest living winemakers. Getting on for a thousand medals and trophies to his name, including the daddy of them all – the Best Shiraz in Australia Trophy at the 2010 Great Australian Shiraz Challenge.
- Yet if you met him, you’d probably mistake him for the gardener. He’s one of the most down-to-earth, approachable blokes you’ll ever meet. He wears a beat-up old hat and drives a beat-up old pick up, and when he’s not in the vineyard, you’re likely to find him up a ladder with a wrench in his hand.
- From being in a pretty sticky situation back in 2011 when he was unexpectedly bought-out by his business partner, Sam has just achieved his lifetime dream; he’s converted an old textile factory into his very own gleaming high-tech winery and it’s all thanks to Angel funding!
