Slingshot has become an instant buy for me. It’s a really solid every day drinker at a very reasonable price. Every time we’ve gotten it I’m always wishing I had a couple more bottles around when the case is done.
Slingshot North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon
6 bottles for $69.99 $11.66/bottle + $1.33/bottle shipping
Case of 12 for $109.99 $9.17/bottle + $1/bottle shipping
How much more are you saving by buying a full case?
(Note: Tax & Shipping not included in savings calculations)
2016 Slingshot Cabernet Sauvignon - $30 = 21.42%
@Winedavid49 Sure. He gave you his email, etc., so it seems like you have free reign to contact him. Unless someone on this forum knows something. Hmmm. I know someone out there knows what happened to fredrinaldi. Squeal before we have to interrogate you (with wine).
Only complaint (sort of) is that a couple of bottles had noticeable sediment, and I hadn’t planned to decant the bottle(s), but I can deal with it. Very nice, drinkable wine that goes with everything, and a great buy at $10/bottle!
We proudly craft the Slingshot wines from our North Coast vineyards. Boasting a rich palate of dark fruit and a subtle hint of French oak, this wine leaves you wanting more. Enjoy Slingshot as you forge your own path and discover your own adventure. Remember, wine should be fun!
Complex yet approachable, the Slingshot North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon has aromas of dark cherry and tobacco. The palate is dark, long and textured with notes of blackcurrant, dried figs and plum that balance the acidity and chewy tannins. The broad finish and subtle French oak will have you scrambling for more!

Fine Wine For Everyone
Nothing is more important than quality. It’s what’s in the bottle that counts.
At Slingshot, our singular goal is to bring you a great bottle of Napa Valley wine at a reasonable price. We’re not interested in perplexing you. Wine is about enjoying the experience.
Our attitude borders on irreverent. Slingshot is about putting your best foot forward while forgetting about fitting into the mold or following the rules. Be bold, be adventurous, choose your own path, and above all remember to have fun.
That’s what we aim for with every bottle of Slingshot. Great wine for sticking up for the little guy; even better for relaxing with friends.

Ah, yes, I remember the dark, yet somehow cheery days… [from the casemates.com page tasting notes (it’s correct on the comments page, above]

Well reviewed crowd pleaser. At $10/bottle you really cannot go wrong
Anyone in the Seattle area want to split a case?
@MaceKates I’m in.
Where is Fred and his review? Someone check on him in Texas, please.
@jmdavidson1
I think I remember that Fred’s son was relocating out of Texas and Fred ended up not making that move. He may still be in CA
@pseudogourmet98 Kind of miss Feed and his commentary regarding reds. Fred, where are you?
@jmdavidson1 @pseudogourmet98 i’m going to track him down. is that legal??
@Winedavid49 Sure. He gave you his email, etc., so it seems like you have free reign to contact him. Unless someone on this forum knows something. Hmmm. I know someone out there knows what happened to fredrinaldi. Squeal before we have to interrogate you (with wine).
Seems to me there was a Fred sighting on Gourmet woot not long ago. An exchange of pleasantries with TT.
Bought a case last time and wished we had bought more. So, now, at this even better price point, we will! Appreciable QPR. In for two.
Only complaint (sort of) is that a couple of bottles had noticeable sediment, and I hadn’t planned to decant the bottle(s), but I can deal with it. Very nice, drinkable wine that goes with everything, and a great buy at $10/bottle!
I appreciate when all the specs are included, it’s really interesting
@scott0210 I’ve been missing that photo…
