The vineyard lies north of Tyrrell’s Ashmans estate on alluvial sandy clay loam, with the old Semillon block forming one of the estate’s important single-vineyard sites. The 2021 vintage was notably fresh and clean, with Tyrrell’s reporting particularly strong fruit quality from HVD during harvest. The wine is made in the classic Hunter Valley Semillon style, emphasising fruit purity, low alcohol and natural acidity rather than oak influence. Its character is precise and restrained in youth, with the structure to develop greater complexity over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFermentation took place at cool temperatures in stainless steel, with no oak maturation, helping preserve the freshness and clarity of the Semillon fruit. Lemon and lime lead the aromatic profile, joined by subtle floral, savoury and white-peach nuances. The palate is light-bodied yet concentrated, showing fine citrus intensity, gentle texture and a distinctive chalky mineral feel. Acidity is firm but balanced, carrying the wine through a long and finely detailed palate. The finish remains fresh, dry and persistent, with citrus and mineral notes suggesting excellent potential for further bottle development.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTasting Notes\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNOSE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Bright, citrus-driven and finely savoury\u003cbr\u003eLemon, lime and white peach with subtle floral notes, light musk and delicate savoury complexity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePALATE\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Fine, concentrated and precise\u003cbr\u003eFresh lemon and lime fruit are carried by bright acidity, gentle texture and a distinctive chalky mineral character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFINISH\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e– Long, clean and mineral\u003cbr\u003ePersistent citrus, white peach and chalky notes extend through a dry, refreshing and finely structured finish.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReviews \u0026amp; Accolades\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Slight musky perfume, lime juice, fine but powerful, intense with a very long finish. Classic line to this, with a bit of flesh, and perhaps some sweet green pea flavour, along with a bit of white peach. It has detail and presence. It’s a very good wine. ”\u003c\/em\u003e — Gary Walsh, The Wine Front, 95 Points\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e“Quiet striking, fragrant lemon and lime nose with a sense of intensity and freshness that really leaps from the glass.
