2006 Tyrrell's Rufus Stone Heathcote Shiraz - Museum Release

Please note: this back vintage wine has been professionally cellared in ideal conditions at Nicks for many years, and we have tasted and approved the quality of the stock offered. However, due to the age and natural bottle variation of older wines, we cannot guarantee that every bottle will be perfect and we are unable to offer refunds or replacements for this product. Although we doubt there will be faults - please purchase with this in mind.
Due to the age of this wine, some bottles may show signs of advanced maturity and we recommend enjoying it sooner rather than further cellaring.

Founded in 1858, Tyrrell’s is one of Australia’s most iconic family-owned wineries, celebrated for producing benchmark wines with a strong focus on regional expression, craftsmanship and longevity. Best known for their Hunter Valley classics, the winery has also built a strong reputation working with premium vineyards across Australia. The 2006 Tyrrell’s Rufus Stone Heathcote Shiraz Museum Release reflects Tyrrell’s long-standing connection with Heathcote’s ancient Cambrian soils and offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a carefully cellared Australian Shiraz with nearly two decades of bottle age.
Alc/Vol: 15.5%

Review from 2007...
An elegant, medium-bodied palate, with wonderful black cherry and spice fruit, perfectly matched by seamless tannins and oak. Great finesse. Gold, National Wine Show '07. Drink 2021
