Red dry
Made from historic vines at least 50 years old, this Shiraz represents the highest quality of the Hunter Valley region. The exceptional 2021 vintage features extraordinary concentration and excellent aging potential.
The complex aroma bouquet intertwines notes of dark fruit, savory spices, and subtle oak. On the palate, the wine is medium-bodied yet stands out for its intensity and velvety texture, which is the hallmark of the best wines of this vintage.
The grapes for this wine are carefully selected from the best plots of the Tyrrell Estate Ashmans vineyard. The vines, dating back at least half a century, are deeply rooted in rich red clay soil overlying limestone beds.
Serve at 16-18 °C with roast beef with peppers, hamburger with pulled pork or longer-aged cheeses.
A juicy and fruity shiraz with plums, ripe strawberries and undertones of sliced red meat, terra cotta and orange peel. Medium to full body, creamy tannins and a savory finish. Lovely intensity of fruit and focus. Drink or hold. 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.
