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
The perfect drop for anyone who loves the classic Cabernets of Bordeaux and Napa
- The 2021 Ode Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon has a dark garnet colour and a rich nose of blackcurrant, black cherry and sandalwood. It has a high toned, velvety attack, a concentrated mid-palate and a long supple finish of enrobed tannins.
- Aged in 25% new oak, half French, half American, to give the rich aromas of French barrels and the sweet vanilla of American, without the harsh tannins.
- It has richness, concentration and pedigree, perfectly expressing the terroir and vintage, without high alcohol or residual sugar… truly delicious.
Best before
I believe this wine will improve with age for 15 to 20 years given proper cellar conditions.
Serving advice
During the first year after release, I would recommend decanting the 2021 Ode Cabernet Sauvignon.
Food match
I love pairing this wine with ground lamb burger from Brown's Valley Market butcher, served on Model Bakery english muffins with grilled Yukon Gold potatoes as a side. A nice mimolette cheese is a good pairing as well.
Contains sulphites
