2024 Swinney Mourvèdre Rosé

Our Mourvèdre Rosé is drawn from dry-grown, bush vines on the ironstone gravel hilltop of our Powderbark vineyard. It’s rosé that’s built from the ground up, born from the same level of viticultural detail that goes into all our wines. Seasoned with a little Vermentino and Cinsault, co-fermented naturally and elevated in old oak, the result is pale and precise, textural and savoury with the inherent drinkability that lies at the heart of every great rosé.

Mike Bennie, www.winecompanion.com.au, January 2025
"Produced from estate-grown, bush vine mourvèdre. A fine, sleek rosé with tension and elegant tannin profile, innate freshness, a tart report of pleasing, sour cherry, cranberry tang and some fine rosehip tea characters. Succulent and refreshing, lighter weight but with good tension and structure. A serious pink wine on hand." 94 pts

Wine Profile

Tasting Notes

Pale salmon An inviting mix of strawberry marshmallow, honeysuckle, Jonathan apple and marzipan. Elegant, complex, intense and refreshing with flavours of white grapefruit, ginger and crab apple. Medium bodied with refined briny acidity balancing a textural and flavoursome palate.

Vineyard Notes

Our collective aim is to produce an outstanding Rosé with what we think is the best possible base material available - Mourvèdre. The fruit was hand-picked from bush vine Mourvèdre with the inclusion of a small percentage of Vermentino & Cinsault for subtle complexity.

Production Notes

The fruit was whole bunch pressed together, filled directly to seasoned French oak barriques and then naturally fermented. Following fermentation, the wine rested on lees for five months to preserve freshness and build texture prior to bottling.
