✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Hardys Cabernet Sauvignon represents a legacy of South Australian winemaking that dates back to Thomas Hardy's first plantings in the mid-19th century. Hardys pioneered the art of multi-regional blending, a technique that remains central to their winemaking philosophy. This Cabernet Sauvignon typically sources fruit from premier South Australian regions—such as the terra rossa soils of Coonawarra and the maritime-influenced McLaren Vale—to achieve a harmonious balance of rich, dark fruit flavors, structured tannins, and subtle minty herbaceousness. Fermented in traditional open fermenters and aged in a combination of French and American oak, this wine showcases the classic, robust Australian style of Cabernet, marrying historical craftsmanship with approachable modern fruit purity.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Hardys blev grundlagt i 1853 af den engelske pioner Thomas Hardy og er et af Australiens mest historiske og traditionsrige vinhuse med dybe rødder i McLaren Vale i South Australia. Gennem fem generationer har vinhuset mestret kunsten at blende på tværs af regioner og samtidig fremhævet de fineste terroirs i South Australia i en alsidig portefølje. Drevet af Thomas Hardys oprindelige vision om at skabe vine, der værdsættes verden over, forener vinhuset i dag tilgængelig innovation med klassisk prestige. Hardys er verdenskendt for sine stilskabende vine – lige fra ukomplicerede hverdagsvine til ikoniske, lagringsværdige aftapninger som flagskibene Eileen Hardy Shiraz og Thomas Hardy Cabernet Sauvignon.
