Product Highlights

Full Product Description

Domaine Tournon by M. Chapoutier Mathilda Shiraz 2023 is a smooth and expressive Australian red wine produced by Domaine Tournon, the Australian project of M. Chapoutier. The Mathilda range focuses on Rhône varieties sourced from Victorian vineyards, with Shiraz delivering a fruit-forward yet elegant style that reflects Chapoutier’s French winemaking influence in Australia. M. Chapoutier Australia notes that Domaine Tournon was established after Michel Chapoutier purchased vineyard property in the Victorian Pyrenees and Heathcote, aiming to produce distinctive wines from Syrah/Shiraz in cooler Australian conditions.

The wine shows a brilliant dark ruby colour and opens with deep aromas of black fruits, blackberry, plum, dark cherry, blackcurrant, and pepper. On the palate, it is supple and generous, with silky elegant tannins, juicy dark fruit, spice, subtle smoke, and a smooth finish. Multiple 2023 retail tasting notes describe the wine as dark ruby in appearance, with black fruit and pepper aromas, plus a supple palate with silky tannins.

This is a great choice for customers looking for a well-priced Shiraz that is smoother and more balanced than a heavy blockbuster style. Serve it with grilled steak, BBQ beef, lamb chops, burgers, roast pork, sausages, rich tomato-based pasta, charcuterie, mushrooms, and hard cheese.
