✨ Technical Specifications
Named in honor of the year Edward Tyrrell established the historic estate, Tyrrell's 1858 Cuvee Brut is a classic Australian sparkling wine that celebrates over a century and a half of winemaking heritage. Crafted primarily from Chardonnay and Pinot Noir sourced from premium vineyards, this sparkling white wine is designed to showcase a vibrant, fruit-driven style with a delicate, persistent bead. The wine undergoes secondary fermentation and brief aging on lees to impart a subtle creamy complexity while preserving the bright, refreshing acidity of citrus and green apple. It stands as an elegant, approachable tribute to one of the founding families of Australian viticulture.
🍾 About the Producer
Founded in 1858 by Edward Tyrrell, Tyrrell's is one of Australia's oldest and most prestigious family-owned wineries, nestled against the Brokenback Range in the Hunter Valley of New South Wales. Spanning five generations of family stewardship, the estate played a seminal role in shaping modern Australian viticulture, including pioneering the country's first commercial Chardonnay with the legendary Vat 47 in 1971. The winery remains dedicated to traditional, minimal-intervention winemaking and the preservation of historic, own-rooted old-vine parcels that yield exceptional regional character. Tyrrell's is internationally acclaimed for its benchmark Vat 1 Semillon, celebrated for its extraordinary longevity, as well as distinguished, elegant Hunter Valley Shiraz and sparkling wines.
