Description
Country: Australia Region: Victoria
Varietal: Semillon
Vintage: 2022 Colour: White Style: Dry
Producer: Tyrrells Winery
Description: Sourced from a small selection of some of the top Semillon vineyards around the Hunter Valley. Most of the vineyards are dry grown and have an average vine age of 40 years. In the lead up to the 2021 vintage, there was an abundance of rain in spring which gave great soil moisture heading into the dry months of December and January. The harvest period was relatively stress-free without any adverse conditions such as rain or heat. All of the Semillon cropped well and was in immaculate condition. 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.
Tasting Note:
Tyrrells Hunter Valley Semillon has a lifted nose showing citrus freshness, the palate continues with fresh citrus and concentrated grapefruit flavours. The palate is light to medium bodied with a perfect balance of fruit and soft acid.
Food Matches: Goats Cheese, Seafood, Pork
