To pre-empt an impending storm in 1993, the Tyrrell's vineyard team were hurried onto sites to pick parcels of fruit which were unlikely to survive a deluge. Some weeks later, the manager discovered to his surprise, an overlooked and unpicked block of over ripe Semillon. Thankfully, the quality of the finished wine was so impressive that Tyrrells continue the tradition each year by intentionally mislaying the Lost Block. Parcels of exclusively Hunter Valley Semillon are vinified and held in contact with yeast lees to add richness and complexity, prior to filtration and prompt bottling, to ensure freshness and preserve the expression of the vineyard.
