Swinney Farvie Mourvedre 2024
The Swinney family has been farming their 3,000-hectare "Franklands" property since 1922, but it was the transition to viticulture in the late 1990s that established them as one of the most significant fruit sources in Western Australia. Under the guidance of fourth-generation siblings Matt and Janelle Swinney and acclaimed winemaker Rob Mann, the estate has shifted from being a prestigious grower for others to a benchmark producer in its own right. The Farvie range represents the pinnacle of their holdings, sourced exclusively from small, ironstone-rich pockets of the vineyard where bush-vine architecture and meticulous dry-farming are used to capture the singular, ferrous personality of the Frankland River.
Farvie Mourvedre is a "draconian" selection from dry-grown bush vines on leaner, gravel-heavy soils, fermented with 100% whole bunches to balance the natural rusticity of the fruit with a heightened spice element. The wine underwent 14 days on skins before maturing for 11 months in seasoned, large-format French oak, capturing the variety's most wild and emotive structural character.
