Tyrrell's Wines
Tyrrell's Sémillon Vat 1
Hunter Valley, New South Wales, Australia
Pale lemon straw . Quite cool and citrus , lime nose , touch of spicy herbal hints , but quite reserved and understated . On the palate this is really direct and linear , lime and slightly honied , cool green apple , lightly toasty , lightly waxy finish . Sharp piercing acidity . Very elegant and long on the palate , light weight but intense at the same time , really quite a feat to carry off . Just a baby , enjoyable yes , but this has so little development , so fresh needs a little time in bottle to fill out on the palate . I would probably come back in 5 - 10 years , will probably last another 10-15 effortlessly

Mar 3rd, 2025Quite light with green tinges . Pretty taught on the nose , intense with lemon , lime , almost a struck match note to this . Intense and tight on the palate , touch of beeswax with the lemon and lime notes . High fresh acidity , though with enough body to cover the bones , lovely balance . This is still really young , but very promising . Come back in 10 years , will last well a further 10-15.
