SWINNEY Farvie Mourvedre 2022 | Frankland River | 1 BOTTLE | AU$140-160 | AUD $ 88 |
Robert Parker Score: 96 points
Reviewer: Erin Larkin — June 2024 Week 213 Jun 2024
Drink 2024–2047
The 2022 Farvie Mourvèdre has 66% whole bunches in the ferment, and this presents as a subtle blood orange character on the nose, with a very fine ductile splay of pliable tannin in the mouth. Grainy, ferrous, chalky and a little chewy, this is a glossier, more provocative wine than the 2021 tasted beside it, but it's no less or more for it; it's a different interaction, based on the warm and dry season that 2022 presented. "It was a good year for growing grapes," says owner Matt Swinney, "from both a winemaker's point of view and a viticultural point of view." The wine remains fine boned and layered, lingering and intriguing. 14% alcohol, sealed under screw cap.
