Description
Deep ruby in colour. On the nose there are red currants, leather, red crushed berries with a hint of toffee. On the palate this is a powerful and generous wine expressing itself with delicacy thanks to a very delicate tannic structure. Intense flavours of ripe fruits and spices combined with a fine acidity – a balance between richness and strength reflecting perfectly the terroir of Heathcote. In 1997, true to his pioneering spirit, Michel Chapoutier set out to explore the varied terroir of Austalia. Domaine Tournon is located in the Pyrenees Hills in Victoria where undulating hills are composed of schist and the Shiraz varietal comes into its own.
