James Suckling (JS) : 93 Points (2022)

Hard to believe that a wine with so much bright crisp pear, star fruit and fresh herbs character has less than 11% alcohol. Very sleek body with quite a steely finish, but the fruit is the winner! Drink or hold.

Wine Enthusiast (WE) : 92 Points (2022)

In a region with as pronounced climactic variation as the Hunter Valley’s, vintage matters. 2022 saw plentiful rain and a late harvest. It’s resulted in a bright, aromatic Semillon that proves an excellent, affordable intro to this unique style. There are notes of preserved lemon, beeswax, lamp oil, white spice and dried herbs. The mouthfeel is round and textural, with zingy acidity. Floral, citrus and spice flow to the finish. This is a summer sipper to pair with seafood or crumbly cheeses.

James Halliday (JH) : 92 Points (2018)

This is said by Tyrrell's to be the baby brother of Vat 1, coming from special blocks from Tyrrell's wide selection of vineyards. Its palate has building blocks yet to come together, ripe semillon fruit and minerally acidity. The hot vintage tested many vineyards. (2/2020)

Wine Spectator (WS) : 90 Points (2018)

Distinctive and refreshing, featuring bright, crisp lemony flavors, with undercurrents of lanolin and saline. Offers a supple frame and an impressive finish.

Robert Parker (RP) : 90 Points (2016)

The 2016 Semillon is a fresh, fruit-forward example of the genre. Green apple and lime juice notes dominate, while hints of crushed stone provide a pleasantly silky texture and extend through the long, mouthwatering finish. While some Sémillons age well, given this wine's fruit-forward nature, I'd opt for drinking it over the next few years.

HVD Single Vineyard Semillon 2016

The wine is floral fruit in youth, which moves towards biscuity characters with age. The palate is generally softer bodied with smoother acids than the Vat 1 and Belford Semillons
