Swinney Farvie Grenache 2024

Each year, the Swinney Grenache is picked by hand from the well-established, dry-grown bush vines on the Wilson’s Pool vineyard. Here, the soils comprise rich gravel and loam. Each vine was passed over multiple times to harvest only perfectly ripe fruit. This year, Rob Mann worked with 40% bunches in a combination of small wooden fermenters and stainless-steel tanks. The wine spent two weeks on skins before being pressed to large (3600-litre), seasoned French wood for 11 months’ maturation.
