Carmen Stevens a Little Heaven Shiraz 2012
About the wine
- Carmen's latest and greatest Shiraz hails from the Heaven and Earth Valley, THE premium wine region of South Africa. It's a spectacular place, packed-full of premium boutique wineries.
- Armed with Angel funding, Carmen was able to slip through the back door of this exclusive region and charm some grapes out of a vineyard nestled amongst the most expensive in the country.
- This heavenly Shiraz is made from super-premium grapes that would normally go into wine 3 times the price. It's big, brooding and seriously powerful, with a decadent streak of yummy oak.

Wine profile
Meet the winemaker - Carmen Stevens
- From humble roots, Carmen blazed a trail, to become head winemaker at a prestigious winery in South Africa. Her wines won medals by the truckload, yet she couldn’t even get a bank overdraft to start her own business.
- That was until Angel funding allowed her to finally fulfil her dream of setting up her own winery. Carmen has gone from strength to strength ever since, winning countless awards (including being voted your Winemaker of the Decade!)
- With your support, coupled with her sheer passion and determination, Carmen is helping to create a better future for thousands of hungry South African children thanks to Angel donations.
