Product Notes

Tyrrell's Wines Winemaker's Selection VAT 47 Chardonnay is an exceptional Australian white wine. The Chardonnay grapes reveal enticing notes of white peach, ripe pear, and citrusy lemon infused with subtle toasty oak complexity. Displaying an elegant minerality, this wine is meticulously handcrafted in the Hunter Valley region. With precise barrel fermentation in French oak, this Chardonnay evokes creamy texture, balanced acidity, and a lengthy finish. An iconic wine, Tyrrell's VAT 47 not only represents the pinnacle of Australian Chardonnay but is also recognised for its age-worthy finesse and underlying complexity, resonating elegance in every sip.

Tasting Notes

A wine with a wonderful core of sweet chardonnay fruit with the subtle underlying oak giving the wine lift and structure with a clean, fresh acid finish. The wine has an extra layer of texture or ‘flintiness’ from the slight solids fermentation. No malolactic fermentation has ensured a tight, lean style of chardonnay that should age well.
