Tyrrell’s Single Vineyard Hunter Semillon 2017

Description

The wine is floral fruit in youth, which moves towards biscuity characters with age. The palate is soft bodied with smooth acids.

95+ Points – Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate

The 2017 vintage was an exceptional season for Semillon in the Hunter, and the nose here leads with sun-drenched honeysuckle, green apple skins, caper brine and crushed shells. In the mouth, the wine is gentle swaying on the brink of evolution; it’s still so tight and glassy, but it’s starting to hint at the enveloping texture and complexity that will develop over the next couple of years. A marvel.
