Tyrrells Vat 47 Hunter Chardonnay

Today it is internationally acclaimed as the benchmark for Australian Chardonnay. “The grandfather of Aussie Chardonnay, Tyrrell’s Vat 47 is still maintaining its exalted position.” The Wine Magazine – Australia’s Top 21 Chardonnay’s

Rich Chardonnay and white nectarine stone fruit characters on the nose and throughout the entire palate, with an underlying savoury lift from subtle oak usage. The solids addition and higher fermentation temperature have added texture and an almost French style “flintiness” to the wine making it more complex and interesting as a drink. No malolactic fermentation has ensured a balanced and tight wine style with lingering fresh acidity that promises to age well.
