    Producer

    The Domaine de Tournon vineyard stretches across varied soils, primarily clay-limestone, which promote optimal drainage and good water retention. The carefully cultivated vines benefit from a temperate climate, ideal for the Shiraz grape variety. Victoria's climatic conditions, with sunny days and cool nights, allow the grapes to develop rich and complex aromas. This terroir, combined with meticulous attention to every stage of cultivation, gives rise to wines of great finesse.

    Owner and history

    Mr. Chapoutier, an iconic figure in the wine world, is the current owner of Domaine de Tournon. With an unwavering passion for viticulture, he has transformed this estate into a model of excellence. His philosophy is based on respect for nature and the pursuit of uncompromising authenticity. Mr. Chapoutier is also known for his commitment to biodynamics, an approach that aims to harmonize the interactions between the soil, the vines, and the climate.

    Vinification and aging

    Winemaking at Domaine de Tournon is a refined art. The Shiraz grapes are harvested by hand and then carefully selected to guarantee quality. After gentle destemming, fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, allowing for precise temperature control. Mr. Chapoutier favors a long maceration to extract the richness of the aromas and the depth of the tannins. Aging in oak barrels imparts woody nuances and added complexity to the wine, while preserving the authenticity of the terroir.
