Somm Note

Winemaker Notes

A deep garnet appearance complements a complex nose of black fruits and cherry with hints of tobacco. The palate is rich and opulent, dominated by black fruits and licorice with supple, delicate tannins.

This aged, complex and bold Shiraz marries well with deep flavored beef and lamb dishes. It also stands up well to hearty tomato based sauces and rich BBQ as well as Asian plum based sauces which bring out the rich texture and tannins in the wine.

Professional Ratings

    This is a solid and chewy shiraz with blackberry and dried meat character. Graphite. Full body and flavorful. Coffee and spice undertones. A little austere. Try in 2019.

In 2009 Michel Chapoutier purchased two Australian vineyards: Shays Flat Estate and Landsborough Valley Estate in the Victorian Pyrenees. He recognized that the cool weather patterns and remarkable diversity of soil and exposures in this region would allow him to make distinctive wines from the Syrah/Shiraz grape of his homeland, utilizing his biodynamic winegrowing philosophy.

A southern extension of the Great Dividing Range, the Victorian Pyrenees foothills and ranges create a remarkable diversity of microclimates and soils that provide a wealth of variety for winemakers. The vineyards consist of ancient soils and exposures, resulting in low cropping vines ideal for intensely flavorful wines. Soils range from highly draining quartz laden to red ferruginous schist, shale, and clay. The vineyards are farmed with a focus on maintaining a good balance with the natural environment, while working where necessary and appropriate to improve soil and vineyards conditions. Named after the Hermitage commune, Tournon leads the movement in Australia towards elegant, balanced wines. The philosophy centers on respect – respect for the terroir, the fruit, and the consumer. The focus is on maintaining good balance in the vineyard’s natural environment while working where appropriate and necessary to improve soil and vineyard conditions. The same dedication is given to the entry-level wines as is given to the more prestigious ones.
