What a stunning wine- bright medium lemon, crisp acidity and a glorious nose of apple, lemon, flint, smoke and just a hint of herbs. Beautiful balance and a long finish - this is a marvelously elegant triumph of wine making. Fabulous with food or on its own. Dazzling — 4 years ago
Elegant and fruit forward, can taste the earth it’s grown in. Beautiful wine and great on day two. — 20 days ago
Light lemon with green reflexes . Yellow fruits , with waxy notes , quite restrained and elegant. Medium bodied on the palate , for those that know, ‘Roses Lime Syrup’ comes to mind , more of the waxy yellow fruit character as well , with quite mineral notes after a while, well balanced and very good length. This is probably at the start of a very long life , will improve over the next 5-10 years and last a further 7-10. — 5 months ago
Oak, lime like herb in aroma. Rich, citrus, white flowers. Citrus, comfortable acidity. Each factor in the taste is showing the feature clearly. From Hunter valley which is an initial place for wine in Australia. Vat 47 Hunter Chardonnay Tyrrell’s 2018 @7546, Toscany JH, 231028-231111 — a month ago
Earthy aromas with savoury red fruits. A good balance between acid and tannin. Oak is absorbed as you would hope at 14 years of age. Doesn’t scream Hunter Valley because of the ripeness of the fruit but that earth and spice leads you there. In hindsight I opened this too early contrary to my previous tasting note 5 years ago. This still has a solid core of potential which will enable the wine to last another 10 years where it will develop leathery notes. — 6 months ago
The first thing I tasted was salt, and that was: uh oh. But after 20 minutes, cranberry, nutmeg, a little mint, raspberry, definitely not as meaty as other Aussie Shiraz and not what I expected, but very enjoyable once my expectations were reset. — 3 years ago
