Product details
Since 1997, Tyrrell’s historical association with the “Rufus Stone” has been utilised for its top non Hunter red wines from vineyards in Heathcote (VIC) and McLaren Vale (SA). Situated just over 100kms north of Melbourne, Heathcote is undoubtedly Australia’s most exciting new red wine producing region. Its unique topography provides the most fertile climate and soil for shiraz vines to thrive, producing grapes which are commended for their ability to full ripen, yet retain excellent levels of natural acidity and fine grained tannins.
