Tyrrell's Vat 47 Chardonnay 2022 750ml

Elegant, rich, and beautifully balanced, Tyrrell’s Vat 47 Chardonnay 2022 is a benchmark Hunter Valley Chardonnay crafted from the winery’s finest parcels of fruit. Pale gold in the glass, it reveals aromas of white peach, grapefruit, and lemon blossom, supported by delicate notes of cashew and toasty oak. The palate is medium-bodied and refined, offering pure stone fruit flavours alongside a creamy texture, crisp acidity, and a long, sophisticated finish. Fermented and matured in French oak barrels, this iconic Chardonnay seamlessly marries fruit purity with careful winemaking — a true reflection of the Hunter’s unique style.

The palate is beautifully complete with breadth and generosity while being refined and restrained simultaneously. The beauty in this wine is the micro detail giving discreet, sophisticated complexity. It has impressive balance and flow, and I expect it to evolve beautifully with time. - Toni Paterson, Halliday Wine Companion, 2024
