The 2022 vintage produced a full and fruit-forward Cabernet Sauvignon featuring characters of strawberry, mixed berry pie, and bright cherry on the nose. The palate leads to flavors of cherry cola, strawberry jam, and soft vanilla framed by a fine, structured tannin profile. The palate finishes with a subtle touch of French oak and an elegant balance between tannin, acidity, and body.

At Slingshot, our mission is simple: craft a bottle of wine that’s big on flavor without the hefty price tag. No puzzles, no pretension, just pure enjoyment in every sip.
We embrace an unapologetically adventurous spirit. Slingshot is about stepping forward with confidence, breaking free from expectations, and rewriting the rules of how wine should be enjoyed. Be bold. Be curious. Choose your own direction—and don’t forget to have fun along the way. Every bottle of Slingshot is made with that philosophy in mind. It’s wine that champions the underdog, celebrates good company, and turns any moment into something worth raising a glass to.
Slingshot Wines was founded by brother-and-sister team James Stewart and Caroline Guthrie, who set out with a simple vision: make great wine that’s bold, approachable, and never weighed down by pretense. Growing up in a family rooted in wine, James and Caroline saw firsthand how intimidating the wine world could feel. With Slingshot, they wanted to flip the script. Their goal wasn’t to chase trends or follow rules—it was to craft wines that deliver serious quality while keeping the experience fun and accessible. At the heart of Slingshot is Cabernet Sauvignon, sourced from trusted growers and crafted with care to overdeliver in every bottle. When available, the lineup expands to include their fresh, vibrant Sauvignon Blanc—a perfect counterpoint to the Cab’s bold character. For James and Caroline, Slingshot is about more than just wine. It’s about celebrating individuality, championing the underdog, and reminding people that the best glass of wine is the one you’re enjoying with friends.
