Tyrrell’s Vat 1 Semillon 2006
Hunter Valley, Australia
5+ stars / 97pts
Time has wrought its magic on this Vat 1 Semillon, enriching the profile with a deeper complexity. The youthful hay notes have evolved into richer, toasty iterations, intermingling with hints of orange peel and melon. A honeyed sweetness emerges on the waxy mouthfeel, beautifully balanced by zesty acidity and an enduring length on the finish. The floral character, reminiscent of honeysuckle, persists, hinting at the wine’s origins while showcasing its remarkable ageing potential. Divine. Enjoy now.
