The Tyrrell family are proud to release their new super Shiraz, DB24. This wine represents a new approach to red winemaking at Tyrrell's. The concept for DB24 was to create a contempory Shiraz that still maintains the Tyrrell stamp of finesse & elegance. Approx. 90% of the Shiraz grapes were sourced from McLaren Vale, & picked to have both the extract & fleshiness of fruit typical of the region. Approx. 10% of Heathcote Shiraz was blended back to the base wine to add structure & finesse. The double new oak maturation for 12 months each, is the derivation of the name DB24. A modern style of Australian Shiraz that has harnessed the strengths of these two great wine regions. The Mclaren Vale gives the wine the extract & fleshiness for which it is renowned & the 10% Heathcote adds savoury undertones & gives the wine balance. The finish is long, & held together well by a thread of acidity. The lunar calendar illustrated on this label has been the vigneron's timepiece: signalling when to harvest, when to cellar & when to enjoy. This wine is matured for 12 months each in double new oak & is the derivation of the name Double Barrel 24. The concept for this wine was to create a contemporary Shiraz that still maintains the Tyrrell stamp of finesse & elegance. The grapes used for this wine come from McLaren Vale & Heathcote, two of the best Shiraz regions in the world. ...

A continuation of the fabulous run of Brokenback vintages since 2006. The 2009 vintage shows aromas of red berry fruits with only a very subtle lift of French oak. These characters then flow seamlessly onto the palate, with plush, sweet fruit balanced by soft acid & tannin, resulting in a classic Hunter shiraz. Fruit was harvested in early February & fermented in hand plunged open vats. The wine was then matured primarily in 'large' French oak casks for eighteen months respecting tradition & the fruit quality, with only 10% receiving small oak maturation. A rich, classic wine of this nature is best served with rich, classic food accompaniments including roasted meats such as lamb or beef. ...

A great match to any shellfish. Excellent drinking upon release & will develop in complexity with short term bottle age. ...

The grapes for the Moon Mountain Chardonnay are sourced from both our own vineyards & a number of high end vineyards around the Hunter Valley. Fermentation of the juice began in stainless steel tanks before the partially fermented juice was transferred to new, two & three year old seasoned French oak barriques (225L) & puncheons (500L). After fermentation, the wine received some lees stirring to enhance the palate structure & texture. No malolactic fermentation used. A medium bodied, fruit driven style that still exhibits crisp citrus & white peach flavours, with a palate that has gained some extra texture from extended maturation on yeast lees. The freshness of this chardonnay makes it a perfect companion to seafood, chicken or pasta dishes. Excellent drinking upon release & will develop bottle age complexity. ...

The oldest & most reliable blocks were targeted for this blend. The grapes were picked then transported to the Hunter Valley for vinification. A pre-soak as the must warmed, fermentation at 25 C & post ferment skin contact time took a total of 20 days, to fully develop tannin structure, flavour & balance. After fermentation, the wine was matured in high quality, tight grain French oak barriques for twelve months before barrel selection took place. The remaining best barrels were matured for a further twelve months before bottling. Deep garnet red in colour, the aromas are dark & brooding with hints of chocolate & plum lifted by cinnamon spiced French oak. All the dark fruit flavours are framed on the palate by rich, layered fruit tannins, tight powdery fine grained oak & the classic mineral texture you get from great Heathcote wines. Starting to hit its straps now, it will also reward with careful cellaring. ...

A blend of selected parcels of fruit sourced from Australia's premium regions. The fruit was fermented in stainless steel potter tanks with regular pumping over to ensure optimum colour, tannin & extraction. After fermentation the wine was matured in a mixture of French & American oak before bottling. Aromas of black cherries, wild berries & some spice. A full bodied red, its palate is intense & rich with dark plum & firm tannins. The aromas & colour hint at the intensity of this wine. A full-bodied red, that will make it an ideal accompaniment to red meats & aged cheeses. ...

Grapes were harvested at different times during the picking season. Some were harvested early to retain clean, fresh acid characteristics. Other chardonnay grapes were harvested later in the season at optimum ripeness to create a rich, full bodied flavour. Once cold settled, the juice was transferred to stainless steel tanks for fermentation. Portions of the blend were matured in small French oak barrels to further enhance complexity. This wine exhibits peaches & stone fruits on the nose & palate, while the subtle use of oak combines well for a refreshing but full mouthfeel. Moore's Creek Chardonnay has been designed for immediate enjoyment & will complement fresh salads, seafood dishes & creamy pasta dishes. ...

This popular blend is primarily sourced from the Hunter Valley & Barossa. Both parcels were fermented separately & underwent a cool fermentation in stainless steel vessels using aromatic yeasts to maximize the grape's fragrant qualities. The wine was quickly filtered & blended to retain its fresh sherbet fruit flavours. A lively, fresh wine, characterised by the grassy aromas of the sauvignon blanc with clean lemon citrus Semillon flavours on the palate. Best served chilled, this Semillon Sauvignon Blanc is ready for immediate consumption. Delicious with seafood, this wine is suited to a vast array of dishes or simply by itself. ...

Aromas of plum fruits, chocolate & vanilla essence. Sweet shiraz fruits & spicy peppery characters are evident on the palate, which is supported by the integration of tannins.
