Winemaker Notes

The 2010 Vintage is a rich and stylish McLaren Vale Cabernet Sauvignon displaying sweet fruit flavors of dark berries intermingled with chocolate, mint and fine French oak. The palate is long with excellent concentrated flavors and soft tannins on the finish.

This wine pairs wonderfully with lamb shanks.

Professional Ratings

  • 91
    This cabernet hits ripeness straight on with currant flavors and the kind of savory coolness the 2010 vintage allowed. The tannins feel suspended in the fruit, adding depth and plummy weight without any jamminess. Not complex, but clean, juicy and ready to enjoy. Buy it by the case.

    Smooth and lush with dark color and velvety texture; juicy and bright with crisp acidity and rich plum and black raspberry; long and balanced.

Tintara, Australia
Tintara Winery Image
Founded in 1862, Tintara remains a testament to quality winemaking, combining age-old methods with new-age technology. The first vines were planted by Dr Alexander Kelly, and in 1863 the first Tintara winery was established at "Upper Tintara". Built against the rolling hills that foot the Mount Lofty Ranges, its ingenious sloping design allowed the labor intensive work to be achieved with the assistance of gravity, which also meant gentler handling of the juice.

In 1878, the Tintara winery and its gravity flow techniques moved to the Old Mortlock Flour Mill in the heart of McLaren Vale, where it remains today. In fact, to this day they use the very same rare basket presses and original slate open fermenting tanks as used in the 19th century. Tintara is a rarity in every sense.

A noble variety bestowed with both power and concentration, Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys success all over the globe, its best examples showing potential to age beautifully for decades. Cabernet Sauvignon flourishes in Bordeaux's Medoc where it is often blended with Merlot and smaller amounts of some combination of Cabernet Franc, Malbecand Petit Verdot. In the Napa Valley, ‘Cab’ is responsible for some of the world’s most prestigious, age-worthy and sought-after “cult” wines. Somm Secret—DNA profiling in 1997 revealed that Cabernet Sauvignon was born from a spontaneous crossing of Cabernet Franc and Sauvignon Blanc in 17th century southwest France.

Known for opulent red wines with intense power and concentration, McLaren Vale is home to perhaps the most “classic” style of Australian Shiraz. Vinified on its own or in Rhône Blends, these hot-climate wines are deeply colored and high in extract with signature hints of dark chocolate and licorice. Cabernet Sauvignon is also produced in a similar style.

Whites, often made from Chardonnay or Sauvignon Blanc tend to be opulent and full of tropical, stone and citrus fruit.
