NOTES
The Angove family company, Angove's Pty. Ltd., is one of Australia's largest privately owned wine companies and stands as one of the few with strong interests in distilling as well as grape growing and winemaking. The origins of Angove's as a company have more to do with satisfying a way of life rather than a determination to establish a wine and brandy producing business. Dr. William Angove, an accomplished general practitioner and surgeon, with his wife and young family, emigrated from Cornwall in 1886 to establish a medical practice in South Australia.
TASTING NOTES
Bursting with lime and lemon the aroma of this wine heralds a great drink. Bright and crystal clear with pale green hues, the wine is crisp and fresh on the palate with great length and moreish sweet fruit. Lovely now but with the potential to age for many years.
REVIEWS
