✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Tyrrell's NVC Shiraz is a classic expression of Hunter Valley Shiraz, born from a rich history of community and innovation. The 'NVC' moniker pays homage to the 'New Vintage Club,' an initiative started by the legendary Murray Tyrrell in the 1970s to share the winery's finest creations directly with passionate enthusiasts. Sourced from premium, dry-grown estate vineyards nestled in the volcanic red clay soils of the Pokolbin sub-region, this wine represents the traditional Hunter Valley style. It is fermented in open-top vats and matured in large, older French oak casks to emphasize the bright, savory fruit profile rather than dominant oak wood. The result is a medium-bodied, elegant red defined by vibrant red berry fruits, subtle gamey undertones, soft tannins, and the signature Hunter Valley white pepper and earthy complexity.
🍾 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.
