The 4 Acres Vineyard was planted in 1879 on deep red clay soils over limestone and is the oldest block on Tyrrell Estate, ‘Ashmans’. A truly authentic Hunter Valley vineyard in its ability to produce a medium-bodied, elegant style with understated power, length and complexity. The fruit is handpicked and sorted in the vineyard before a natural fermentation takes place in our open top vats with approximately 10% whole bunches. After fermentation, the wine is matured in a single, three-year-old French oak cask for 14 months.
Medium colour density with a bright purple hue. It has a complex aromatic profile of red fruits, dried herb and touch of pepper. The palate shows great precision and clarity, whilst being light to medium-bodied, a true Hunter River Burgundy style. Bright red fruits, lively acid and subtle tannins all work together seamlessly. A wine with deceptive length, and great complexity and freshness.
