✨ Technical Specifications
Tyrrell's Moore's Creek range takes its name from the watercourse that runs through the historic Ashmans property in the Hunter Valley, where the Tyrrell family has been crafting wine since 1858. While the estate is legendary for its long-lived flagship wines, the Moore's Creek label represents an approachable, fruit-driven expression of classic Australian varietals. Sourced from selected vineyards across South Eastern Australia, this Cabernet Sauvignon is crafted to highlight vibrant primary fruit. It undergoes traditional fermentation followed by careful maturation with subtle oak influence, resulting in a wine that balances rich dark berry flavors with soft, approachable tannins and a touch of spice, embodying Tyrrell's historic winemaking expertise in an everyday style.
🍾 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.
