Swinney was founded by the Swinney family, who have been growing grapes since 1922 in Australia. The estate is known for low-intervention viticulture, focusing on Shiraz, Grenache, and Mourvèdre from dry-farmed, bush-vine vineyards. Swinney’s wines are often praised for their purity and structure.
Their vineyards are among the most isolated in Australia, benefiting from long, cool ripening seasons. The estate also employs selective hand-harvesting and wild yeast fermentation to maintain site expression in its wines.
