In 2021, we decided to go back to our historic roots and make Vat 8 Shiraz Cabernet as a multi-regional blend. The Shiraz is sourced from some of the best parcels on the Tyrrell’s Estate property, with the Cabernet Sauvignon coming from McLaren Vale. The 2021 vintage blend is 60% Shiraz and 40% Cabernet Sauvignon..
After fermentation in stainless steel vats, both parcels were matured separately before blending in November 2021. The blended wine then finished its maturation in French oak barriques until bottling in April 2022.
A modern interpretation of the Great Australian Red that respects the tradition of varietal blending to make a more rounded wine. The wine shows intense plum fruit sweetness from the Shiraz with dark berry and chocolate characters. The Cabernet component adds to the density and structure of the wine.
Serve at 16-18 °C with venison roast, Iberico pork ham or long-ripened cheeses.
Founded in 1858 by English immigrant Edward Tyrrell, Tyrrell's Wines is one of Australia's most famous family-owned wineries. The family's vineyards stretch from its historic home in the Hunter Valley near Sydney to the Limestone Coast and Heathcote.
Run by fourth generation family member Bruce Tyrrell, the winery produces some of Australia's most awarded wines including the iconic Vat 1 Semillon.
The Hunter Valley's sandy, alluvial soil is ideal for white grapes. There are 11 vineyards in the region that are more than 100 years old, 7 of which belong to the Tyrrell family.
Tyrrell's is one of the founding members of Australia's First Families of Wine.
Since 1971, Tyrrell's has won more than 5 000 trophies and medals, and was named Wine of the Year by James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion in 2010.
