Tintara Vineyard Company : ウィキペディア英語版 | Tintara
Tintara is an Australian winery located in McLaren Vale, South Australia within the McLaren Vale wine region. The winery was established in 1861 and incorporated in the 1862 as the Tintara Vineyard Company by Alexander Kelly, a medical physician and winemaker who wrote the early Australian winemaking and viticultural text ''Winegrowing in Australia'' and ''The Vine in Australia''. Several prominent figures in the early history of South Australia and McLaren Vale were initial investors in the winery including the founder of the University of Adelaide, Walter Watson Hughes, landowner Samuel Davenport and politician Thomas Elder.〔J. Beeston ''"Concise History of Australian Wine"'' pg 74 Third Edition Allen & Unwin 2001 ISBN 1-86508-547-2 〕 Today the winery holds the distinction of producing the oldest surviving bottle of Australian wine—an 1867 Tintara Vineyard claret. The Tintara wine earned the distinction when the previous record holder, an 1864 bottle of Pewsey Vale Cabernet Sauvignon, was accidentally broken by an office cleaner at Christie's auction house.〔 G.

Alexander Kelly was a medical doctor with over 17 years of experience in viticulture and winemaking in Australia. Being intrigued at the potential for grape growing in the McLaren Vale, he planted his first vineyard in the area and named it "Trinity". In 1861 he established a winery and in 1862 secured investing to incorporate the winery as the Tintara Vineyard Company. At the time it was one of the first commercial wineries in the McLaren Vale. Among his investors were several prominent figures in 19th century South Australia such as Thomas Elder, Samuel Davenport and Walter Hughes. The initial planting included 210 acres (85 hectares) and was followed with a second wave of plantings in 1864. Among the grape varieties planted were Mataro (Mourvèdre), Shiraz, Grenache and Carignan. By the 1870s, the winery was in financial troubles and was sold to Thomas Hardy & Sons (later Hardy Wine Company, now part of the Accolade Wines portfolio) in 1876.〔
