19 Crimes Hard Chard is a deep, rich and golden liquor filled with stone fruit aromas and a sweet textured palate. Our Hard Chard honors the brave contributions of the women banished to Australia with the boldest expression of Chardonnay we could make. 19 Crimes turned convicts into colonists. In the 18th and 19th centuries, British rogues found guilty of at least one of 19 Crimes were sentenced to live in Australia as punishment. As pioneers in a frontier penal colony, they forged a new country and new lives, brick by brick. Today, 19 Crimes wines celebrate the rebellious spirit of the more than 160,000 exiled men and women, the rule breakers and law defying citizens that forged a new culture and national spirit in Australia. Similar in character to the rogues on our bottles, 19 Crimes wines are bold and uncompromising.
