Description

The Mother's Vineyard Shiraz from Tyrrell's is one truly built to please all lovers of this wonderfully versatile variety.

Beautifully dark and savoury, filled with peppery spice and yet still maintains a lovely line of acidity to keep it all in check. No heavy handed oak treatment here, either, so it's in an approachable medium-bodied frame.

You could drink it now, you could store it for a rainy day, and either option would provide plenty of pure drinking pleasure. Another win for Tyrrell's.

93 Points - "Planted to cuttings from the more propitiously situated vineyards: Johnno's, the vaunted 4 Acres and Old Patch, in 2010. Massale selections from the Tyrell's cathedral. This vineyard, its own in-house nursery, if you will. Savoury. Mid weighted. Definitive Hunter 'Burgundy' styling, serviced by gentle extraction and large-format oak. Sassafras, orange peel, violet, kirsch and bing cherry. Fine, sappy, easygoing length. A strong suggestion of what it is, exactly, that the Hunter can do so well." - Ned Goodwin MW (Halliday Wine Companion)

Mother’s vineyard is situated adjacent to Chris and Tegan Tyrrell’s home and has always been known as Mother’s after Murray Tyrrell’s mother, who lived there for her entire married life. The block was planted in 2010 using cuttings from 4 Acres, Johnno’s and Old Patch, ensuring that our best Shiraz clones are preserved.
Mother’s shows the dark-fruited, savoury spice aroma that is typical of the vintage. A crunchy, medium-bodied palate with only a hint of oak that is already showing great drinkability despite its youth.

Tyrrell's

Established in 1858, Tyrrell's, an esteemed family-owned winery, holds a prominent place in Australia's viticultural history. Renowned for exemplary Shiraz, Semillon, and Chardonnay releases, the Tyrrell family safeguards the Hunter Valley's finest and oldest vineyards, upholding a legacy of quality winemaking. Chris Tyrrell, continuing the family tradition, ensures Tyrrell's remains a crucial pillar in the realm of Australian wine.

Embedded in the Hunter Valley's fabric, Tyrrell's, guided by founder Edward Tyrrell, pioneered Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, influencing the iconic Semillon style. Notably, their Vat 1 Semillon, Australia's most-awarded white wine, holds almost 5,500 medals and 330 trophies.

While honoring their heritage, the Tyrrells embrace innovation, staying at the forefront of the dynamic Hunter Valley. Fifth-generation winemaker Chris Tyrrell finds humility in working with his forefathers' vineyards. The family's commitment extends to future generations, evidenced by their participation in Australia's First Families of Wine. Guided by Edward Tyrrell's motto, "Nothing is great unless it is good," the Tyrrell legacy persists, passing the business to successive generations, balancing reverence for the past with a forward-looking perspective.
