Butterfly Ridge Angove 1996
type: Product
description: The 1996 Butterfly Ridge is a red wine produced by Angove's. The estate's history dates back to 1886 when a young doctor named William Thomas Angove established a hobby vineyard and winery in the foothills of Adelaide, South Australia. The wine takes its name from an area overlooking the original vineyard, which became known as "Butterfly Ridge" due to the wide variety of butterflies that flourished there. Four generations later, the family-owned wine company created this label to honor its early history.This wine originates from South Eastern Australia, a top-level Geographical Indication (GI) in the Australian classification system. Functioning as a "super zone," it covers all of New South Wales, Victoria, Tasmania, and the Australian Capital Territory, along with the southeastern parts of Queensland and South Australia. The GI designation was officially established in 1996—the very year this wine was harvested—as a result of trade negotiations with the EU. Encompassing practically all of the country's significant wine regions, this broad umbrella allows producers to blend wines from multiple areas.The wine is crafted from a blend of Shiraz and Cabernet. On wine labels, "Cabernet" frequently serves as a collective term for grape varieties within the Cabernet family, primarily Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. These thick-skinned grapes, which ripen relatively late, have a global reach and adapt well to various climates, though they are classically associated with regions such as Bordeaux, Veneto, and Tuscany. During the winemaking process, a discreet use of oak is applied to the blend, which is bottled at 12.5% alcohol.
