Label reads: "Vintage 1977 vat 70. Tyrrell's Hunter River Cabernet. Estate bottled. Tyrrell's Vineyards PTY LTD., Pokolbin N.S.W. Produce of Australia. Murray D. Tyrrell Winemaker. Made from Cabernet grapes picked late in vintage from the Bimbadgen vineyard. The wet conditions of the vintage were suited to the Cabernet variety and the 1977 is the best so far made. It has rich purple colour, full fruit flavour and a firm tannin and acid finish. The wine was matured for 12 months in new American Oak puncheons which has increased the complexity of the bouquet and palate. A great wine of the Claret style that will require 5-6 years to fully soften and develop. 370ml."
