✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Tyrrell's Brookdale Semillon is a classic expression of Hunter Valley Semillon, representing the estate's signature style in a highly approachable format. Sourced from premier vineyards across the Hunter Valley floor, including the historic Brookdale property, the grapes are harvested early to preserve their naturally high, vibrant acidity and low sugar levels. In keeping with the traditional Hunter Valley method pioneered by Tyrrell's, the juice undergoes cool fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks with no oak contact or malolactic fermentation. This minimalist winemaking approach allows the pure, pristine character of the Semillon grape and the unique sandy loam soils of the region to shine. The result is a wine of remarkable energy, defined by bright citrus and mineral notes in its youth, which gracefully transforms into a complex, textured masterpiece with bottle age.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Tyrrell's blev grundlagt i 1858 af Edward Tyrrell og er et af Australiens ældste og mest prestigefyldte familiedrevne vinhuse, smukt beliggende for foden af Brokenback Range i Hunter Valley i New South Wales. Vinhuset har været i familiens hænder i fem generationer og har spillet en skelsættende rolle i udviklingen af moderne australsk vinavl. Det var blandt andet her, landets første kommercielle Chardonnay så dagens lys med den legendariske Vat 47 i 1971. Vingården er fortsat dedikeret til traditionelle vinifikationsmetoder med minimal intervention samt bevarelsen af historiske, rodægte vinstokke, der giver vine med en enestående regional karakter. Tyrrell's er internationalt anerkendt for sin ikoniske Vat 1 Semillon, der er berømt for sit fantastiske lagringspotentiale, såvel som for sine elegante, karakterfulde Hunter Valley Shiraz-vine og mousserende vine.
