- TASTING NOTE: Enticing aromas with notes of nashi pear, white flowers and citrus. The palate shows fresh minerality and is underscored by a textural and balanced palate evoking green apple and pear on a long and satisfying finish.
- ABOUT THE WINE: Fermented and raised in stainless steel with weekly lees stirring to build texture. The vines were planted in 2011 after the Hardy's decided that Fiano would be well suited to not only this particular location, but to McLaren Vale’s warm, dry climate.
- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: The Hardy’s are one of the founding families of the Australian wine industry and the Upper Tintara Vineyard is central to their story. Since Thomas Hardy purchased the land in late 1870s, it has passed from one generation of Hardy to the next, a constant traversing through time. Today, Andrew ‘Ox’ Hardy and his family look after the 140-hectare farm in Blewitt Springs, in the upper slopes of McLaren Vale. Nestled amongst thirty hectares of native bush are 45 hectares of vine; 2.54 hectares of which are the ancestor vines, originally planted by Ox’s great-great grandfather in 1891. Ox’s winemaking experience spans four decades. Having worked with some of the greats in Australia and abroad, today he focuses his energy crafting benchmark wines which showcase the terroir of the iconic Upper Tintara Vineyard.
