Tasting Notes

Multiple critics have heralded the Farvie Syrah as the best of the best in Western Australia. Yet the quality of this label tells us Swinney’s ambitions aim further afield than the Indian Ocean to the west and the Nullarbor Plain to the east. They believe they have the site and the practice to rival the world’s most unique and authentic expressions of Syrah. A lofty goal indeed, but one Swinney is well on the way to achieving. Perhaps they already have. From a dream year for Frankland Syrah, it’s a wine with all the purity, depth and perfume we have come to expect from a Farvie Syrah, and then perhaps a little more; here, there is a fineness, intricacy and detail, not quite so apparent in the warmer and dryer years. It’s a wine that belongs on the finest wine lists and cellars nationwide.

Product Highlights

This Syrah has garnered 99 points from Ray Jordan and 97 points from James Halliday! Sourced from select areas within the Powderbark and Wilson Pool blocks, it was hand-harvested, with 65% left as whole bunches to enhance its ethereal structure and texture. The wine matured for 14 months in large-format French oak barrels, developing a brooding, dark purple hue that complements the enticing aromas of cinnamon, plum, and pepper. On the palate, dark fruit and spice delight the senses. Wine critic Matthew Jukes has described it as "one of the most dynamic Syrahs on earth."
