Tyrrell's 1999 Vat 1 Semillon is one of the most awarded wines in the country. At last count, 8 Trophies and 28 Gold medals have been awarded to this remarkable wine.
Aromas of lemon and lime and some lightly honeyed toast. Juicy fresh squeezed lime flavours with a little toasty development. Touch of spice and vanilla. Pure and perfectly balanced - everything is just right here. Exceptional length of flavour. Just starting to develop some complexity but still fresh and vibrant.
