About this wine
Tyrell’s Johnnos Shiraz, Hunter Valley 2021
Hunter Valley pioneers Tyrell’s present this premium evocation of Hunter Shiraz, named for Johnno’s vineyard, itself christened in honour of fifth-generation family member John Tyrrell. The vineyard was christened in 1908 with Semillon and Shiraz. Wines from this vineyard are known as the Sacred Site wines. Light, alluvial, sandy soils result in a Shiraz of unique, lifted character representative of Hunter Shiraz..
Fruit for this wine is handpicked and fermented with 10% whole bunches. After fermentation, it is matured in one new 2700L French oak cask. Light, bright, and energetic, this Shiraz welcomes the drinker with lively red fruit and violet, and a scant lick of oak. Blackberry, light new oak and grainy tannins on the palate contribute to a delightfully fresh palate.

James Suckling
So much dried strawberry with bramble berry here. Wet earth and bark. Black mushroom. Full-bodied and chewy with excellent depth and structure. The tannins are polished and refined. Some wet earth and ash in the finish. Super length. Drink or hold. Screw cap.

Expert Review
James Halliday
The vines were planted in 1908 on sandy soil, very different to the vivid red clay of the 4 and 8 Acres wines. The colour is on par with its peers, but from that point on, it's on its own. The bouquet is earthy, in the style of the region at large. There's spice also in play on a complex matrix, and the fruit reveals itself after much swirling and fiddling. The palate has quite wonderful red fruits studded with spices that cast a net over me, causing me to drink the tasting sample.
