Wine Summary Image

This wine region is made up of the upper Hunter and lower Hunter, and is linked by the Hunter River. Settlement commenced in the Hunter Valley region in 1826. In the 20th century, expansion occurred slowly until the boom period of the 1960s and 1970s. The majority of the vineyards in the lower Hunter are situated on the extreme southern side of what is a broad and relatively flat valley nestled into the foothills of the Brokenback Range.

The terrain is gently to markedly undulating, bordered to the north, west and south-west by the Great Dividing Range. The summer climate in the Hunter is humid, with high cloud cover and high rainfall. A break in the Great Dividing Range allows summer sea breezes to penetrate the valley. Rainfall is often highest just prior to and during harvest in February.

The vintage period is one of the earliest and shortest in Australia with harvest commencing in late January in the lower Hunter. Yields are generally low so grape quality is good, and there is an inexplicable affinity between the terroir and the semillon and shiraz grapes for which the area is justly renowned.

With our first plantings in 1879, Pokolbin remains the home of Tyrrell’s vineyards and has become recognised as some of the Hunter Valley’s finest vineyard land and the basis for development of our premium wines.

Expert Reviews

Rating 94 - Ned Goodwin Australian Wine Companion Published 01 August 2018

While semillon is the postcard of the region, Tyrrell's Chardonnays, too, are Hunter benchmarks. This is bright and energetic, exuding white peach, nectarine and truffled curd, wrapped around a creamy core of nougat, vanilla pod oak and cashew. This will reward mid-term ageing.

Winery Tasting Notes

A complex nose of sweet Chardonnay fruit and a hint of solids character. The palate is balanced between primary Chardonnay fruit flavours, and secondary flavours derived from the minimal solids ferment and extended yeast lees contact resulting in this wine’s complex texture and mouth feel.
