Ray Jordan’s review
Here's a wine that captures very much the regional vineyard character in Frankland River. It comes from the Swinney Vineyard, which produces some of the best shiraz in the state. Lovely exotic aromas of plummy cherry and cracked peppercorn. And then a palate which has a delightfully grainy, textured feel about it, that threads through the vibrant, plush red fruits, providing such a compelling combination. A very faint hint of ironstone is a regional characteristic, and it adds to the wine.
