Angus The Bull Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

Hamish MacGowan may be many things. Winemaker. Marketer. Globetrotter. However, vegetarian is not one of them. In a world pandering to vegan demands, it is a welcomed change to find a wine targeting red meat-eaters. And for the fathers within the category, of which I predict there are a few, an indulgence of dad jokes. Angus The Bull has a tag line to applaud… cut the bull. Interpret it as you will – the literal sliced sirloin or metaphoric ceasing of nonsense. There is a market for both!

A cavernous crimson hue met with appealing savouriness – sarsparella, nigella seeds, tilled soil complimented by varietal black fruits and a breath of dark chocolate. Flavours are plush and upfront, confected blackcurrant pastille, Dutch licorice black cats, cocoa powder, an undernote of chargrilled capsicum and varnish. A smooth tannin profile, open knit with a grainy, toasted oak finish that attests to the suggested fat in a prime piece of juicy steak. Despite being on the shorter side, this is an eBULLient Cabernet.
