The Kookaburra Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
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
Nina poured her heart and soul into this ripper of a Cabernet Sav
-
This is the first wine Nina ever made in Coonawarra, the home of elegant, award-winning Aussie Cabernet Sauvignon. Famous for its red ‘terra rossa’ soils and maritime climate, Coonawarra is Australia’s premier Cabernet Sauvignon region. Its best wines can age for decades. And Nina’s drop is pure, unadulterated Coonawarra Cab at its best.
-
Deep and brooding, it oozes lush cassis fruit, plums, black cherries, spice and a pinch of eucalyptus. The nose is layered with blackcurrants, oak and clove, while the palate is powerful, with bags of structure and nice chalky tannins. The elegance, concentration and balance deliver everything you want in a Cab from this iconic region.
-
This wine means a lot to Nina. It was made in support of the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne, where her best friend’s son received amazing care for a rare bone marrow disease. All profits from the wine will be donated to the Kookaburra ward where he was looked after, and we’re matching the donation to double the impact.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Nina Stocker
- Nina Stocker is a ridiculously talented young Aussie winemaker who's dedication to her wines knows no bounds. It's not just about the end product for Nina - she's there every step of the way, working side by side with the grape growers, the truck drivers and cellar hands to make stonking wines that are fair and sustainable for all involved. Is it any wonder she’s already achieved international recognition and critical acclaim?
- She's made wine for famous brands all over the shop – from the Rhône Valley to Yarra, McLaren Vale to Marlborough – Nina won the Sauvignon Blanc trophy at the prestigious Air New Zealand Wine Awards back in 2009. A feat even more astounding given it was her first year working with the grape.
- Now living in Central Victoria, Nina sources her grapes from like-minded growers and local vineyards who are down-to-earth (quite literally), and dig sustainable winemaking just as much as she does. Thanks to the support of Naked Angels, Nina and her husband John have been able to develop sustainable farming methods, growing outstanding grapes whilst giving back to the land that made them. It’s a win for nature and a win for wine lovers.
