Tyrrell's Sacred Sites Johnno's Shiraz 2021
The 2021 Tyrrell's Wines Johnno's Shiraz is a captivating and sophisticated expression of Hunter Valley Shiraz, seamlessly melding power and elegance into a singular wine experience.
Nestled within the historic Johnno's vineyard, which saw its inception in 1908, the Shiraz vines thrive in sandy alluvial soils, a distinct contrast to the deep-red clay over limestone found in our 4 Acres and Weinkeller vineyards. Not only does the soil here tell a unique story, but the resulting wine stands as an unparalleled masterpiece among our red wine offerings, boasting a personality that sets it apart in the most exceptional way.
This Shiraz is not just a momentary pleasure but a testament to longevity. While it can be enjoyed in its youthful vigor, it promises to evolve gracefully over the coming decade or even longer, steadily revealing new dimensions of flavor, complexity, and character. Embrace this wine now, and watch it transform into an even more captivating masterpiece with time.
