Tyrrell's Wines Sémillon Vat 1 Hunter Valley 2008

Knife-edge acidity drives this austere Sémillon from 1923 plantings, showing gooseberry, kiwi and citrus zest with striking tension. Capsicum and white asparagus notes emerge on the finish, adding savory complexity. Still youthful despite its age. Classic Hunter Valley terroir at work.
