A proud, Australian family-owned company of 160 years, Tyrrell\u2019s Wines continued its wine show success in 2018 at the Royal Melbourne Wine Awards. We were the recipients of 2 trophies for our 2013 Belford Semillon, for Best Semillon and Best Mature Wine. We also won the Consistency of Excellence Medal for Vat 1 Semillon (vintages 2005, 2009, 2013). This award is given when the same label receives a gold medal in the same class three years in a row.
\nThe Belford vineyard, planted on very fine talcum-powder soils in 1933, is isolated and tucked away down a secluded off-road track, like a secret garden, and produces Semillon with an intense flavour profile. The 2013 vintage has been one of the best vintages from this vineyard in recent years and, in addition to the above trophies, the wine has also won The Finlaysons Trophy for Best Semillon in Show at the Royal Adelaide Wine Show and a Gold medal at the NSW Wine Awards.
\nThis is further endorsement in the Tyrrell\u2019s unwavering belief that the Hunter Valley produces wines which are unique to their microclimate and show a true sense of place.
\nIn addition to the 2 trophies and Consistency of Excellence medal in Melbourne, Tyrrell\u2019s also received 3 Gold, 7 Silver and 10 Bronze.
