Hardys Wines

A visit to Hardys Tintara is not just about tasting wine, but experiencing the rich history that goes into running a business over 165 years.

The Hardys Tintara winery, on the main street of McLaren Vale, has been at the heart and soul of the region from the very beginning. In 1878 Thomas Hardy transformed an old flour mill into one of the region’s best wine cellars, and with his success, the township of McLaren Vale began to prosper and grow.

Today, we are proud to still be the home of Hardys, and be able to showcase the original winery, as well as combine time-honoured winemaking techniques with the best of today’s technology.

Experience it for yourself from our new Winery Viewing Platform, or explore our history in our Fortified Room, wander through our gardens, browse through the Fleurieu Arthouse and make sure you experience our tastings of Icon, Regional and Cellar Door only wines.

Make some time to come in and see us, we have plenty to share with you.
