SKU: PERUNSCAB23
Part of Bec Hardy Wines, the Pertaringa brand - initially established by Bec’s father Geoff Hardy in 1980 and acquired by Bec in 2020, continues on as a range of traditional and icon wines that carry a wealth of family history combined with distinct flavours, depth of profile and rich body. This cabernet sauvignon fruit is sourced from three vineyards, the Picnic Ground vineyard (once owned by Thomas Hardy and named after the picnics they used to hold there) located on Kay’s Road, the Osmond family’s “Leslie” block just outside McLaren Flat and Tintookie vineyard located in Blewitt Springs. The combination of blocks from these different sub-sections of McLaren Vale allow for wonderful diversity and richness of flavour.

”Wonderfully composed and styled, the wine presents aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry, tobacco, and elegant oak on the nose. The palate delivers excellent weight and fine flow, splendidly framed by chalky tannins, making it sturdy and robust with a lengthy, satisfying finish. At its best: now to 2036.”
