Hardys, established in 1853, remains a family-run institution in Australian wine, and its Eileen Hardy Shiraz line reflects a blend of tradition and regional expression. The 2002 vintage offered ripe McLaren Vale fruit with depth and succulence. Grapes were hand-picked, fermented traditionally, and matured in oak to merge generous dark fruit with nuanced structure. The resulting wine reveals layers of blackberry and plum underpinned by cedar spice and firm, polished tannins. A compelling expression of McLaren Vale Shiraz from the early 2000s, this release balances immediate appeal with the potential to cellar further.

Reviews

Medium to full purple-red; a rich and full bouquet with masses of ripe black fruits, dark chocolate and some licorice; the oak is potent, but is justified. A wine which takes no prisoners, but which has fantastic palate flavour, bursting with licorice, black cherry/berry and spice flavours surrounded by ultra-sophisticated vanilla oak. 95 points, Wine Companion (10/1997).
