✨ Technical Specifications
The Lindemans St George Cabernet Sauvignon is a legendary Australian red, sourced from the iconic St George Vineyard in the heart of the Coonawarra region. First planted in the 1960s, this vineyard is situated on the world-famous 'terra rossa' strip—a shallow, iron-rich red clay soil sitting over a pure limestone base. This unique terroir, combined with a cool maritime climate, imparts a distinctive character of intense cassis, dark plum, and signature notes of eucalyptus and mint. First released in the early 1970s, St George has earned a reputation as one of Australia's benchmark single-vineyard Cabernets, celebrated for its elegant structure, fine-grained tannins, and remarkable cellaring potential.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1843 by English naval surgeon Dr. Henry Lindeman at his Cawarra property in the Hunter Valley, New South Wales, Lindeman's has grown into one of Australia's most enduring and globally recognized wine brands. Now under the stewardship of Treasury Wine Estates, the house has expanded its viticultural footprint across premier Australian terroirs, establishing renowned holdings in regions such as Coonawarra, South Australia. Guided by a winemaking philosophy that champions accessibility, varietal purity, and consistency, the estate gained international acclaim through its accessible Bin Series—spearheaded by the iconic Bin 65 Chardonnay—alongside prestigious, cellar-worthy expressions like the celebrated Coonawarra Trio featuring St George Cabernet Sauvignon and Limestone Ridge Shiraz Cabernet.
