Tyrrells flagship semillon and one of Australia’s most awarded white wines.Vat 1 Hunter Semillon epitomised the benefits of patient bottle ageing that transforms this unoaked wine into a masterpiece. First produced in 1963, the Vat 1 is fermented in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks before it quietly spends a few years ‘resting’ in bottles.

2015 Vat 1 is a classic Hunter Valley semillon showing a tightly structured palate with considerable length and breadth of citrus fruit flavours. This wine is only just beginning to evolve and show a hint of toasty, bottle aged complexity. An iconic Australian wine from what is a classic vintage for Hunter Valley semillon.


Hand-picked in the early morning, lightly pressed before relatively cool fermentation. This is still in its infancy but is gloriously whole bunch, which guarantees youth at 10yo, maturity at 20, and age yet further down the track. When to drink? Your choice.

97 points James Halliday winecompanion.com.au


Vat 1, year in, year out, rarely sets a foot wrong. Honey and some soapy perfume, white fruit like pears, plus mixed citrus and a flicker of pepper. Light in body, yet delivers plenty of flavour, ripe lime, lovely clean acidity – almost a sherbetty character –  then a finish that’s light, delicate but very long. Precision and beauty. Good bet for the cellar too.
