New South Wales is the birthplace of Australian wine, with the Hunter Valley home to Australia’s first commercial vineyards. Today there are 14 dynamic wine regions in New South Wales.

MOST POPULAR WINE REGIONS OF NEW SOUTH WALES 

HUNTER VALLEY

On a tour of New South Wales wine, the historic Hunter Valley wine region is a must-visit. It was established in the 1860s and today it’s one of Australia’s best-known and most-visited wine regions, thanks to its easy two-hour drive from Sydney, award-winning cellar doors, top restaurants and stunning scenery. The Hunter Valley is famous for its unique Semillon wines, alongside Chardonnay, Shiraz and a growing list of alternative varieties suited to the warm climate. 

SOUTHERN HIGHLANDS

On Sydney’s doorstep, the Southern Highlands is a popular destination for its wine tastings in boutique cellar doors, regional produce and top restaurants in historical towns. Expect sophisticated country charm – this is where national parks and forests meet formal gardens, celebrity-owned estates and boutique shopping. The climate is quite cool, thanks to the higher altitude, and there’s a small but growing community of independent producers crafting elegant wines, including Chardonnay, Riesling and Cabernet Sauvignon. 

CANBERRA DISTRICT

Surrounding the city of Canberra, the lush and hilly Canberra District wine region produces premium cool-climate wines. It’s home to around 140 vineyards that span New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory. Discover elegant Shiraz and fresh Riesling, plus a range of other red and white wines. There’s also contemporary cellar doors to visit, a fast-growing food scene and all the attractions of Canberra a short drive away. 

ORANGE

About three-and-a-half hours west of Sydney, Orange is one of the highest vineyard areas in Australia. The weather is relatively cool and the landscape is dominated by the now extinct Mount Canobolas volcano. This young but fast-growing region has become a serious dining destination thanks to its brilliant wines, restaurants and local produce. There are more than 60 wineries and top-quality examples of Chardonnay, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon, plus elegant sparkling wines. 

MUDGEE

The Mudgee wine region is a popular weekend getaway thanks to its flourishing food and wine scene, arts community and boutique shopping, set within a historic, down-to-earth region about three-and-a-half hours from Sydney. Its wine community is known for innovation and sustainability, so expect architectural cellar doors, creative winemakers, and vibrant red and white wines grown in sustainable vineyards.

Tyrrells Hunter Valley Chardonnay

Tyrrell's Hunter Valley Chardonnay

Tyrrell’s Hunter Valley Chardonnay

The grapes for our Hunter Valley Chardonnay were sourced from a number of sites across the Pokolbin area, each of which has a slightly different microclimate and so brings its own unique personality to the blend.  A cool summer then gave us even, stress-free ripening with some heat around Australia Day that was perfectly timed at the final stages of ripening. With an early budburst and later than normal harvesting, the fruit had a longer than normal hang time, which meant that all of the fruit had wonderful flavours balanced by a high natural acidity. The grapes were both hand and machine picked before gentle pressing and fermentation. After cold settling for two days, the juice began fermentation in stainless steel tanks before being transferred and matured in new and older French oak barriques. After oak maturation, the wine spent an extended time on lees in stainless steel for an additional nine months to build texture and mouthfeel. A method used extensively in Burgundian winemaking.

Textbook modern, medium-bodied Hunter Valley Chardonnay to be enjoyed with a variety of cuisines. The nose shows a great mixture of citrus, white stone fruit, some oak spice as well as just a hint of solids complexity. The palate is medium bodied, with a lively fruit intensity and texture through the mid-palate, with a refreshing acid profile.

Alcohol – 12.5%
Cellaring – Designed for immediate enjoyment

The Chardonnay and Pinot Noir are picked in the cool of the night to retain acid. Ferments are warm to add interest and mouth feel. Harmony in the wine comes from the blending of the two varieties over numerous vintages. A secondary ferment is then undertaken in tank to add weight and a lovely creamy texture to the wine.

The Accomplice Semillon Sauvignon

The Accomplice Semillon Sauvignon

Let the Accomplice be your partner in wine. Cheeky, fun, easy drinking wine for everyday.

Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc from select vineyards in the Riverina were chosen for their intense varietal characters.

Drought, fire and flood, followed by plague. The 2020 vintage threw everything at us, fortunately the smoke did not reach the Riverina and impact the fruit. The drought again impacted us with a dry winter and early spring. Thus resulting in some restriction of growth and yield. Leading to good quality fruit. Harvest began 7 Days later than the previous few years beginning after Australia Day.

Deen VAT Series Duriff

Deen VAT 1 Duriff

Deen VAT 1 Duriff

Deep purple with vibrant red hues. Black plum, fruitcake, hints of liquorice and dark choc notes. The palate is rich and fleshy. Dark fruit and chocolate with hints of Liquorice. Subtle oak and a
defining tannin structure.

Vineyard: Riverina, Heathcote (multiple GIs)

The Riverina fruit for this wine was grown on one of the original Durif plantings by the late Deen De Bortoli on our estate vineyards at Nericon and Bilbul. The Heathcote fruit is sourced from a vineyard situated on the Eastern side of the Mt Camel range on deep, ancient Cambrian soil.

Viticulture

2020 will be regarded as one of the most eventful vintages on record with drought, fire, flood and then a pandemic. Fortunately the smoke did not impact on the fruit in the Riverina or Heathcote regions. A dry winter and early spring resulted in some restriction of growth and yield but which resulted in rich flavours in the Durif. February and March had average temperatures meaning the fruit was picked in good physical condition and ripeness levels.

Vinification of DEEN VAT 1 DURIFF

The vineyard is frequently visited during the ripening season, monitoring the fruit for the desired rich flavours and ripe tannins to determine the optimum time to harvest the fruit. The fruit was destemed into our potters and fermented to dryness. Then gently pressed and settled. About 15% remains in stainless tanks unoaked to retain lively fruit freshness whilst the remainder is matured in a combination of new and older American and French oak barrels for 12 months before blending and bottling.

Maturation

About 15% remains in stainless tanks unoaked to retain lively fruit freshness whilst the remainder is matured in a combination of new and older American and French oak barrels for 12 months before blending and bottling.

Food Pairing for DEEN VAT 1 Duriff

Tyrrells Hunter Valley Shiraz

Tyrrell's Hunter Valley Shiraz

Tyrrell’s Hunter Valley Shiraz

Vineyard
A selection of some of our top blocks on the Estate and surrounding area, most of which are dry grown and averaging 40 years in vine age.
Vintage Conditions
The 2019 vintage was the third great vintage in a row for the Hunter Valley, the product of another hot, dry summer. The drought continued through the growing season, but on New Year’s Eve and 7 January, we had good storms that provided the vines with enough moisture to retain their leaves and fill out and ripen the fruit. While the berries were a little smaller than normal, the overall crop was at the level we expected.
Winemaker’s Notes
Our Hunter Valley Shiraz is made to the same high standards that our flagship Vat 9 Shiraz receives. The fruit was destemmed, but not crushed, to ensure as many whole berries as possible made it to the fermenter. The wine was then matured in older, large format French oak casks. These 2,700L casks highlight the fruit purity whilst making sure that oak isn’t the dominant character.
Tasting Notes
Vibrant purple colour, with a lifted nose showing bright red fruits and confectionary spice. The palate is medium bodied with good depth of flavour yet still lively and fresh. Soft, savoury tannins and a crunchy acidity adds to the wines complexity. A wonderful example of the modern, medium bodied Hunter Valley Shiraz.

Deen VAT Master Blend

Deen VAT Master Blend

Deen VAT Master Blend

The Deen Vat range is a tribute to Deen De Bortoli, a true visionary in the Australian wine industry, whose mission was to create quality wine for everyone to enjoy. This unorthodox blend of Shiraz, Durif, and Cabernet Sauvignon captures the essence of each variety and combines for a wine with great personality. Bright red with a garnet hue. Blueberry fruits, chocolate with hints of cedar spice aromas. The generous palate has an abundance of dark fruits, structuring tannins and a hint of dark chocolate.

Viticulture

2019 saw late spring rains allowing the vines to prosper following a relatively dry winter. Lower than average yields and a significantly earlier harvest allowed for good varietal flavour development and balanced acid.

Vinification

Fruit was harvested in the cool of the morning to maximise fruit freshness. Upon reception at the winery, the fruit from each variety of each region kept separate and was carefully destemmed into Potter fermenters where the individual parcels underwent a cool ferment for a total period of 6 to 10 days. Pressed off at dryness, the wine was then put into a selection of new and older American and French hogshead barrels for 12 months. A multi-regional wine that captures the essence of each variety from the regions the fruit is sourced. Spicy Shiraz from Heathcote, the rich Durif from Riverina along with the cool climate Cabernet Sauvignon from the Yarra valley make for a harmonious blend.

Maturation

The wine was put into a selection of new and older American and French hogshead barrels for 12 months.

Food Pairing

Pair with you favourite Roast, Lamb Shanks or a delicious Ragu.
