Tyrrell's Vat 1 Semillon 2018

Sometimes a young Vat 1 is a kind of 'blink and you'll miss it' wine. I ran through these wines yesterday lunch, and came back to finish the reviews almost 24 hours later.

Lime and vanilla, subtle perfume, stony things, and immaculately clean. It's soft and subdued, a little bit juicy and round, yet has a cool and pure 'minerally' acidity that gives it quiet confidence. Quartz and fine powder texture. Length is convincing, with a little pulpy bitterness. I have a good feeling about this release. Drink 2021-2035. 95 Points. Gary Walsh, The Wine Front.
