    Intense purple nose. Old Patch and Johnnos cuttings. Rose petal palate, bright, lifted, not super length but brighter and more expressive than the Old Hut.

    Spicy nose and spciy palate. Gets morning sun but not the afternoon sun. Good acid backbone, fine and chalky tannins. Nice.

  • 2023 Tyrrell's Shiraz Old Hut

    Australia, New South Wales, Hunter Valley

    Lower tone nose. More bubble gum palate and darker than Mother is, but it's longer. Looks brutish next to Old Hillside.

  • 2023 Tyrrell's Shiraz Single Vineyard Stevens

    Australia, New South Wales, Hunter Valley

    Bright nose and palate. Higher acris. Broad shouldered and plushish but also bright. Looks simple next to the 4 Acres and Old Patch though.

  • 2023 Tyrrell's Shiraz 4 Acres 96 Points

    Australia, New South Wales, Hunter Valley

    Very spicy nose. Very very concentrated wine but also light on its feet. Sharp acid, lots of perfume in the mouth. Huge length and line. Very chalky tannins, layers of silky fine tannins. Love it. 96-97.

  • 2023 Tyrrell's Shiraz Single Vineyard NVC

    Australia, New South Wales, Hunter Valley

    Pastry oak on the nose from new oak. Super perfumed nose. Nebb like structure to start with. Very bright fruit with high acid and medium tannins. Voluptuous with time and started to look more generic with time in glass.

  • 2023 Tyrrell's Shiraz Old Patch "1867"

    Plush full nose. Plush on the palate, dark purple fruits. Much longer and more structured than Old Hillside. I kept getting a hint of menthol.
