Market Price
To show you the value you're getting as an Angel...
We regularly benchmark a selection of our wines against up to three comparable wines on the market. The Market Price is based on the price of those wines.
What do we mean by benchmark? We taste them blind against our own wines, or we use our market knowledge (over 40 years between us) to set an industry standard Market Price.
If you buy one of our wines and disagree with the Market Price, or it's not your cup of tea, we'll add a credit to your account. For more info, see our FAQS.

About the wine
A juicy Australian red from a showstopping vintage
- The quintessential Australian blend, the grapes for this wine were sourced from premium vineyards in the up-and-coming Langhorne Creek region of South Australia. This area is renowned for producing award-winning, delicious and very drinkable wines. So when an opportunity arose to source these beautiful parcels of fruit, it was seized!
- 2018 will be long remembered for its low yields of high quality grapes which produced a notable collection of graceful, elegant wines. The grapes were harvested at optimal ripeness to ensure no overripe characters crept into the finished product. The style of this wine is fresh, fruit forward and easy drinking - perfect for every day! With a generous, full flavour, the Mechanic Shiraz Cabernet offers layer upon layer of juicy fruit and outstanding length.
- Thank you so much to all the Angels that support us winemakers in doing the thing we love the most - making amazing, unique wines to share! I am so very happy to be bringing you my latest offering of Australian wines from some of my most favourite winegrowing regions. I can’t wait to hear from you all and look forward to your feedback, as what I do would simply not be possible without your support! I hope you enjoy drinking these wines as much as I’ve enjoyed making them.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Hamish Maguire
- Hamish has been working in vineyards since he was old enough to pick up a spade. His father was a Winemaker so Hamish and his brothers spent much of their youth pulling weeds and training young vines.
- Decades later and his weed pulling experience looks has stood him in pretty good stead. Hamish now runs his own winery in Australia's prestigious McLaren Vale, which Hamish (and a fair few of you would agree) has dubbed one of the best wine regions in the world.
- Tasty, juicy and balanced are the key criteria for every last drop of Hamish's wines. Working predominantly with McLaren's Shiraz and Grenache grapes, you can rely on Hamish to pull powerful and outrageously delicious big reds out of the bag time after time.
