Alpha Box & Dice is a modern, cutting-edge collection of wines - just look at the labels! - from this passionate and slightly bonkers trio of winemakers. AB&D was founded in McLaren Vale in 2008 and is unconventional in its approach; there are no ‘regional, varietal or stylistic’ boundaries, just great wines from great fruit. The plan is to craft a different wine for every letter of the alphabet - from Apostle (Shiraz-Durif blend) to Zaptung (crown-capped Prosecco). Each wine is unique and has a story and eye-catching label to go with it. A fab collection of wines that a causing quite a buzz in the wine scene.
Alpha Box & Dice ‘Icona’ Cabernet Sauvignon is a homage to the icons of McLaren Vale, of which there are many. For this iteration we celebrate Cabernet Sauvignon. Big, bold, juicy with cassis and blueberries on the nose and molasses, chocolate and cherries on the tongue. A classic, approachable and expressive Cabernet Sauvignon. Thick juicy steak or the perfect accompaniment for after dinner nostalgic narratives.
