Tyrrell`s Vat 9 Shiraz 2018

The 2018 vintage was a spectacular Shiraz vintage in the Hunter Valley. Dry, warm conditions meant cropping levels were smaller than average and produced wines of great concentration and length of flavour. Vat 9 is a blend of the best old blocks that sit on the strip of red soil that runs through the Tyrrell`s winery. Intense purple in colour, lifted spice and a pretty red berry nose with a subtle oak lift. The palate is medium bodied showing soft sweet fruits. Subtle oak enhances the mid palate which is complemented by the fine, clean acid structure and long tannins. A classic Vat 9 that will have a long life in the cellar.
