✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Tyrrell's Sparkling Shiraz is a vibrant celebration of a uniquely Australian wine style. Originating in the late 19th century under the moniker 'Sparkling Burgundy,' this rich, effervescent style has become a beloved festive tradition in Australia. Tyrrell's crafts this expression using premium Shiraz grapes, showcasing the classic Hunter Valley profile of savory spice and dark red fruits. The wine undergoes secondary fermentation to produce a fine, creamy mousse, and is often finished with a touch of older, fortified Shiraz in the dosage liqueur. This traditional addition imparts a luxurious depth, velvety texture, and a hint of sweet spice, seamlessly balancing the wine's natural acidity and robust tannins.
🍾 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.
