The Terlato & Chapoutier domain is the French company’s third project in Australia, and the second domain in Victoria. Michel Chapoutier joined forces with the Terlato family (the company’s American distributor) in 2000 in the Great Western Victoria’s Pyrenees on clay- and gravel-intensive soil. Already 20 years into what has been a great adventure.
“Lots of earth and spice with some meat and plum aromas and flavors. Full body. Soft and velvety texture with earth, spice and meaty character. A little exaggerated in the funky direction, but fun.” – James Suckling
Organically certification in progress on vintage 2018.

“The 2014 Lieu-dit Malakoff Shiraz boasts notes of leather, clove, roasted meat and espresso. It’s medium-bodied, with just enough plummy fruit to round out the palate, and it has a softly dusty finish.” – R. Parker – Wine Advocate

The fruit for the Hedonist Cabernet Sauvignon is grown biodynamically on the estate vineyard situated in the Willunga foothills, McLaren Vale. Warm Summer days are cooled by evening sea breezes from St Vincentís Gulf, which lies a close proximity to the West. The soil is rich loam over clay with patches of underlying limestone, giving the wine a rich and fullness of pallet.
The fruit for the Hedonist Shiraz is predominately estate grown on our organic/biodynamic certified vineyard situated in the Willunga foothills, McLaren Vale. Fruit is also sourced from the Sellicks Foothills, Blewitt Springs and Kangarilla, all from vastly different soil profiles and aspects across the district. The idyllic St Vincent’s Gulf with it’s cooling sea breeze lies just to the West of the valley.
A very dry winter and spring, coupled with record heat and dry conditions throughout summer led to an early and condensed vintage. The conditions lent themselves to smaller berries with good concentration of flavour.
“I made it black and silky in new American oak and it’s got that long velvety finish true Shiraz lovers lust after.”– Walter Clappis, Winemaker
This wine is made using certified biodynamic and organic vineyards and winemaking practices.
With his pioneering spirit, Michel Chapoutier set off to discover the terroirs of the oldest continent, with an idea: growing Rhone grapes in Australia. This was the beginnings of a tremendous voyage of discovery, observation and eventually, affection for that land. On what he found to be very special terroir, he planted non-grafted vines from 19th century clonal selections, imported from Europe before phylloxera took its toll. The non-negligible advantage was that in Australia, the harvest coincides with the French spring: ideal timing.
Organic certified.
