The 2018 vintage of Tyrrell's Belford Semillon from the Hunter Valley showcases pronounced citrus aromas and a distinctive, fuller-bodied palate with a subtle chalky texture typical of the Belford Vineyard. This is complemented by a crisp, gentle acidity that extends the wine’s finish.

Grapes were carefully handpicked and sorted before being lightly crushed and pressed with some stalk inclusion. Fermentation occurred at cool temperatures, followed by a brief period on yeast lees. The wine was bottled early to preserve its vibrant freshness, with no oak influence during fermentation or aging.

The Belford vineyard was planted in 1933. The soil is light and sandy – the consistency of talcum powder – for the top 50 centimetres. It is the northern-most of the Tyrrell’s Hunter Valley vineyards.
