When the Hunter Valley’s emblematic estate meets its signature grape variety, the result is pure brilliance.

Vibrant, crystalline, and built to age, this dry Australian white shines both as an aperitif and alongside seafood or ceviche.
Already delicious in its youth, this wine can evolve beautifully over 10 to 15 years, developing toasty aromas and exceptional complexity—a true hallmark of great Hunter Valley Semillon.

REGION
Hunter Valley
Australia
The Hunter Valley is the flagship wine region of New South Wales and one of the oldest in Australia. It is here that the story of Australian wine began in the 19th century—and where a unique winemaking tradition continues to thrive. The region is especially renowned for two iconic styles: oak-aged Chardonnay and dry, vibrant, and taut Semillon.
The latter, produced since the 1870s, is considered the purest expression of the grape variety in the New World. The best Hunter Valley Semillons, such as those from Tyrrell’s, are known for their crystalline freshness in their youth and their remarkable ageing potential, developing notes of honey, toast, and beeswax over time.
