Tyrrell's Vat 1 Hunter Valley Semillon

Hunter Valley, Australia
Australia's most historically significant and distinctive white wine — Hunter Valley Semillon released at 10.5% alcohol and just 6 months after harvest, bone dry, intensely citrus-mineral and searingly austere when young; after 10–15 years in bottle it transforms into a golden, honeyed, toasty complexity unlike any other white wine in the world.
complement
Mature Hunter Semillon's honey-toast complexity and preserved acidity create the definitive partnership with Australian prawns — a wine-food pairing of national cultural significance.

complement
Hunter Valley's most beloved local pairing — aged Semillon from the lower Hunter with Sydney Basin oysters, the wine's toasty lanolin complexity perfectly matching the oyster's saline ocean character.

complement
Aged Semillon's developed complexity and nutty-toasty character mirrors aged Gouda's caramel-crystalline depth in a pairing of parallel transformation.
