Product Notes

Cape Mentelle Shiraz Cabernet is an exquisite wine that epitomizes the best of Australian winemaking. This premium blend showcases the perfect marriage of Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, resulting in a sophisticated and complex flavor profile. Incredibly smooth and velvety on the palate, it offers a rich tapestry of dark fruits, including blackberries and plums, intertwined with hints of spice and tobacco. This medium to full-bodied wine exudes elegance and balance, with its well-integrated tannins and a long, lingering finish. Cape Mentelle Shiraz Cabernet is a true expression of craftsmanship, best enjoyed alongside hearty red meat dishes or savored on its own for a truly luxurious experience.

About the Winery

Cape Mentelle

The winery gets its name from a nearby Cape that was given that title by the French "Baudin Expedition," which mapped Western Australia's coast in 1801. The Cape was given the names of two prominent French scientists who resided in Paris in the early 1700s: geographer Edmund with his brother Francois-Simon Mentelle. In 1970, David Hohnen, a pioneer in the wine business, and his brothers Mark and Giles founded Cape Mentelle Vineyards. Merely 16 hectares of grapes were cultivated on what today is known as the "Wallcliffe Vineyard" when their incredible Cape Mentelle journey began. Red wines were initially the main focus, including a brazen Shiraz. The establishment of Cape Mentelle's sister winery, known as Cloudy Bay, by David Hohnen in 1985 marked a turning point for the development of white wines.
