Fermented and matured entirely in stainless steel tanks, the wine spent a short time on its lees to add richness and texture to the palate. We then bottled it relatively early in order to retain its aromatics and freshness. With its classic varietal character, the Old Winery Sauvignon Blanc exhibits a wonderfully fragrant nose of snow peas, guava with a dash of passionfruit. On the palate it marries herbal and grassy notes with a zesty citrus-fruit character.
Served at 10-12 °C with fresh oysters, asparagus, white fish and goat cheese.
Founded in 1858 by English immigrant Edward Tyrrell, Tyrrell's Wines is one of Australia's most famous family-owned wineries. The family's vineyards stretch from its historic home in the Hunter Valley near Sydney to the Limestone Coast and Heathcote.
Run by fourth generation family member Bruce Tyrrell, the winery produces some of Australia's most awarded wines including the iconic Vat 1 Semillon.
The Hunter Valley's sandy, alluvial soil is ideal for white grapes. There are 11 vineyards in the region that are more than 100 years old, 7 of which belong to the Tyrrell family.
Tyrrell's is one of the founding members of Australia's First Families of Wine.
Since 1971, Tyrrell's has won more than 5 000 trophies and medals, and was named Wine of the Year by James Halliday's Australian Wine Companion in 2010.
