97 / 100"Sourced from old vines planted on ancient sand, the 2019 is tightly bound with vibrant citrus, white stone fruit and apple blossom. Remarkably pure, driven and delicate, it will age into magnificence in the decades to come."

"A strong set of releases for Tyrrell’s in 2019. White peach and citrus, lemon balm perfume, very fine feeling wine with soft chalky texture, almost silky (in context), but nervy and gently grainy on the finish. A subtle herbal thread runs through it, adding complexity. It feels cool and composed and delivers flavour in a quietly confident way. Explosive length marks it out as being a special wine."
