Overview of the Wine
New World? Tyrrell's Wines produced their first vintage in 1864.
Located well in the heart of the Hunter Valley, the winery is better known today for continuing to produce arguably the region's best Semillon.
In 1858, Edward Tyrrell planted his first vines in the Hunter Valley. In 1959, Murray Tyrrell took control of the winery and started producing Tyrrell’s wines under their own labels. Tyrrell’s pioneered Chardonnay and Pinot Noir in Australia and quickly received international recognition. While remaining a family company, Tyrrell’s has reached out to larger wine markets: in recent years, it has expanded its traditional Hunter Valley vineyard base to other famous vineyard areas in Australia.

Winemaker's Tasting Notes
Sourced from a small selection of some of our top Semillon vineyards around the Hunter Valley. Most of the vineyards are dry grown and have an average vine age of 40 years. The grapes were machine picked in the cool of the night before gentle pressing and fermentation in stainless steel tanks. The wine then spent a short amount of time on yeast lees to gain extra complexity and mouth feel.
Classic Hunter Valley Semillon from another strong vintage. The nose is vibrant with an abundance of citrus fruits and floral elements. The palate is medium bodied, yet intense, with great length and a brisk acidity.
Quite fruity and primary but highly likable, this has oodles of fresh tropical and citrus fruit and orchard-blossom notes. There’s zippy acidity and a little textural weight, making this ultraeasy to knock back, but also a versatile food pairing. It’s a bargain to boot.
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.
An intense version, with Meyer lemon, grilled peach and fresh Honeycrisp apple. Offers plenty of intensity packed into a light, fresh frame that exudes elegance, with a lemon blossom note on the finish. Drink now. 7,000 cases made, 100 cases imported.
