White dry
This is a classic Hunter Valley ‘Semillon’, produced in a strong vintage year and often compared to the famous “Tyrrell's Vat 1 Semillon”, considered like its “younger brother.” “Hunter Valley Semillon” is made to the same high standards as their flagship ‘Shiraz’.
The wine's aromas open with vibrant citrus fruit and subtle floral accents. On the palate, the wine exhibits medium weight and a long finish, accompanied by a lively, energetic acidity.
“Hunter Valley Semillon” is carefully selected from the best vineyards scattered throughout the Hunter Valley, renowned for vines with an average age of 40 years. The grapes were mechanically harvested at night. The gently pressed juice was fermented in stainless steel tanks.
Serve at 8-10 °C with rock oysters, sashimi or scallops.
Plenty of apple, nettle and pear drop aromas and flavors, with a medium body, attractive fruit and a creamy texture. A balanced and delicious semillon. Drink now. Screw cap.
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 grape growing. 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 Winery of the Year by James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion in 2010.

Aging and Drinking Period
Tyrrell's Wines are known for their excellent balance between freshness and complexity, making them enjoyable both young and aged. In particular, the "Semillon" wines have a significant potential to age and develop over time. The "Shiraz" wines can also be aged, but their optimal drinking period depends on the specific vintage and style.
