Wine Summary Image

Tyrrell’s Special Release is reserved for unique parcels of fruit that in a particular vintage have those qualities and point of difference to warrant being bottled and released on their own. Verdelho is one of the Hunter Valley’s key white varieties and the Fordwich sub-region often produces the best Verdelho. 2019 saw a continuation of the warm, dry conditions experienced in 2017 and 2018 which now sees a trifecta of great Hunter Valley vintages.

An unwooded early drinking style, the wine has intense varietal characteristics with aromas of limes, sweet fruit and some spice. The palate is well balanced with the fruit sweetness balanced by a crisp acid finish.

Winery Tasting Notes

Vineyard

The grapes for the Special Release Verdelho are sourced from in and around the Pokolbin area with the addition of some old vine material from the Broke-Fordwich sub-region. Verdelho is one of the Hunter Valley’s key white varieties and the Broke Fordwich sub-region often produces the best Verdelho.

Vintage Conditions

The 2018 vintage in the Hunter Valley was another very high quality year across all varieties and is a fantastic follow up to 2017. Harvest dates were roughly 10 days earlier than 2017 as a result of an abnormally dry growing season, the driest since 2003.

Winemaker’s Notes

Machine harvested in the early hours of the morning when the fruit was at its coolest, the grapes were then lightly pressed before fermentation took place at cool temperatures in stainless steel tanks. After fermentation then wine was ‘cleaned up’ quickly and bottled early to maintain its freshness.
