Ox Hardy Upper Tintara Vineyard Shiraz 2021
Juicy aromas of dark plums, blackberries and redcurrants tightly knit with fresh cedr/chocolate oak are lifted by a whiff of white pepper and a hint of fiery, exotic spice. It’s long, smooth and evenly paced, with a vivacious core of black and red berries supported by a fine, loose-knit extract and faintly smoky, cedry oak. Finishing with a vital acidity, it leaves a lingering presence of dark fruits and licorice. Polished and ready to enjoy.

Ox Hardy
Andrew Hardy brings his wealth of winemaking experience and unbridled enthusiasm to his family's historic vineyard in Upper Tintara, which includes a 2.5 hectare block of Ancestor Vine shiraz planted in 1891. His wines, reds especially, tell a story of why McLaren Vale can be so relevant today, both as a source of classic traditional Australian wine as well as more elegant and medium-bodied alternatives to what many drinkers believe the region is all about. Taken as a group, the wines are spotlessly made, true to type and offer terrific value for money.
