Tyrrell’s is a Mattinson 10-Star Winery.
Only the best of Australia’s best wineries are ranked as a Mattinson 10-Star Winery.

The Tyrrell’s winery is the green light at the end of the Australian wine pier. It sits as a beacon on its Hunter Valley hill, its old school ways and values more modern and relevant than ever. This family produces terrific wine after terrific wine, most especially with chardonnay, semillon and shiraz but really, with whatever it turns its hand to. Tyrrell’s is a pillar of strength for its region, and a home base for those of us who cherish fine wine’s most essential trait: to produce a portrait of a place, painted in wine, sealed in a bottle.
