Today, one of Australia's best-known and largest wine producers is also a pioneer of the wine industry in Australia. The history of the wine house begins in 1853, when 23-year-old Thomas Hardy bought a land called Bankside on the banks of the Torrens River near the city of Adelaide and founded the Hardys Wines wine house. International recognition came in the late 19th century when Hardys wines took gold medals in several categories at the French Wine Exhibition in 1882 and 1889. In 1887, Thomas' sons joined the wine business and the winery adopted the name Thomas Hardy & Sons. Hardys was the first Australian wine producer to export its wines to Great Britain in 1857, the most important wine market in the world at the time. The color of the wine is straw yellow of medium intensity. The aroma is fresh and fruity. Feel white flowers, yellow tropical fruits, melon, overripe yellow apples, pineapple and ripe yellow plums. The end of the aroma is complemented by bitter citrus fruits. The taste is fruity and round with the character of yellow ripe fruits. You can smell pineapple, baked apples, melon and yellow ripe stone fruits with a hint of sweet baker's spices. The wine is fermented in stainless steel barrels, malolactically fermented and developed for a short time in large oak barrels.
