The Swinney Farvie Syrah 2020, from Frankland River, is expected to present a deep ruby to purple hue. On the nose, it should offer complex aromas of dark fruits like blackberry, plum, and black cherry, layered with distinctive savory notes of white pepper, licorice, and a hint of olive or smoky garrigue, characteristic of cooler climate Syrah. The palate will be full-bodied yet elegant, showcasing concentrated fruit intensity balanced by fine, persistent tannins and vibrant acidity. Expect a long, mineral-driven finish with lingering spice and dark fruit.
