- TASTING NOTE: “This opens with a slightly savoury nose with hints of brioche, marzipan and light stone fruit. The palate is fine and pristine, with a subtle savoury, nutty and mealy character, supported by some lees influence. All Gingin clone, planted in 1984 from cuttings sourced from Leeuwin Estate, this is a vineyard of remarkable intensity and purity. Winemaking is deliberately uncomplicated, with high solids and natural yeasts, allowing the inherent intensity of the vineyard to shine. It is a richer, riper style, with flesh, personality and character. Slightly lower in acid than many Margaret River chardonnays, but with excellent richness and complexity.” 95 points - Ray Jordan, Ray Jordan Wines
- ABOUT THE WINE: This October, we are excited to release our inaugural Swinney Margaret River wines. Sourced from two exceptional vineyard sites in Wilyabrup and Redgate, our Chardonnay and Cabernet wines capture the maritime influence, precision and regional character that define Margaret River, shaped by the same vineyard-first approach, meticulous viticulture, attention to detail and considered winemaking that exemplify Swinney in Frankland River. Different place, same philosophy, unmistakably Swinney. Swinney Wines

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: The Swinney family have been farming their property in Frankland River for 100 years. Today the property is run by fourth generation brother and sister, Matt and Janelle Swinney. Bush vines litter the property. Riesling, Grenache, Syrah and Mourvedre are finding a very happy home on the ironstone slopes above the Frankland River. The Swinney vineyard represents modern viticulture interwoven with Old-World techniques, executed with precision through a combination of exhaustive manual work and state-of-the-art technology, and all underpinned by an environmental focus.
