An amazing Australian red wine by Michel Chapoutier from the Rhône valley. A 100% complex Shiraz that blends French savoir-faire with Australian terroir.
More infoFar from his native Rhone valley, Michel Chapoutier has produced this 100% Shiraz in an extremely rare terroir of red soils which date back to the Cambrian era. While avoiding over-ripeness, he macerates the bunches and gently extracts the juice in order to obtain silky tannins. Its extremely refined tannic structure which melds with aromas of ripe fruits, spices, and caramel make for a powerful and elegant wine.
About the Producer Chapoutier
Maison Chapoutier is without doubt one of the most prestigious names in the Rhône producing some of the finest Hermitage. The domain converted its 300 hectares of vines to biodynamic viticulture, making it the largest vineyard to adopt this method of cultivation. It has held certification since 1999. Chapoutier is often one of the last estates to harvest its grapes so that they are at optimal ripeness.The Chapoutier savoir faire has spread to other vineyards in other winemaking regions: Provence, Beaujolais, Roussillon, Champagne, Alsace, Portugal but also South Australia.
This family's winemaking journey started way back in 1806 but 1879 was a turning point when Polydor Chapoutier bought a few hectares of vines and started a negociant business. Seven generations have succeeded him, and Michel Chapoutier is currently at the helm, supported by his children Mathilde and Maxime. Together, they continue the family's story, all while highlighting Rhône's great terroirs.
