Wine zone of the Swan Valley on the doorstep of Perth (25 min), hot Mediterranean climate (24 °C in January), the historic birthplace of Australian wine since 1829. Chenin Blanc is the signature white (one third of Australian production of the variety): versatile from dry to luscious, with intense green apple, pear, white flowers and a honeyed-kerosene hint with age, preserved acidity and excellent ageing. Aromatic Verdelho. Full-bodied, spiced Shiraz as the signature red.
