Tyrrell's vat 8 Shiraz Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
The Shiraz is sourced from some of the best parcels on the Ashmans property, with the Cabernet Sauvignon coming from McLaren Vale. The 2022 vintage blend is 70% Shiraz and 30% Cabernet Sauvignon.
After fermentation in stainless steel vats, both parcels were matured separately before blending in November 2022. The blended wine then finished its maturation in French oak barriques until bottling in April 2023.
A modern interpretation of the Great Australian Red that respects the tradition of varietal blending to make a more rounded wine. The palate has varietal red fruit sweetness from the Shiraz with complex spice. The Cabernet component adds a blue fruit intensity and greater structural tannins which adds to the overall balance of the wine.
Alcohol – 13.5%
Cellaring – 10+ years
