A new spirits brand has hit the Australian market, innovating the sector by blending two beloved beverages – tequila and cabernet sauvignon. Casa Tinto has launched Tequila Cab Sav, bringing together Jalisco tequila and South Australian Cabernet Sauvignon grapes.

The company stated early trials were chaotic, but the concept evolved through persistence, play, and refinement.

With tasting notes of ripe black cherry, cassis, and dark plum meeting subtle threads of vanilla and oak, the finish is smooth and lingering.

“This isn’t about shock value, it’s about reinvention with purpose,” stated the company.

“Equal parts conversation starter and bar cart statement piece, Casa Tinto blends craftsmanship with curiosity, creating a spirit that’s both innovative and undeniably drinkable. Tequila for the table, not just the shot glass.”

Casa Tinto is now available exclusively online at tinto.casa, for RRP $84.95.
