THEIR STORY
The name, Swings & Roundabouts, encapsulates the timeless dance between the diverse elements of grape and wine production. Just like in life, what we might lose in one aspect, we gain in another. The philosophy reverberates through the very vines that bear their grapes and the artistry that unfolds in the winery.
THE VINEYARDS
In the heart of the northern Margaret River region, where the land and sea converse in a symphony of flavours, their story thrives. Anchored by two remarkable vineyards, each with a unique tale to tell.
The 40+ year old Wildwood Vineyard is a tribute to time itself. Here, ancient dry grown vines weave a narrative of resilience and tradition. Their roots delve deep into the earth, drawing character from the soils and wisdom from decades of seasons. The Wildwood Vineyard is a testament to the enduring beauty of nature's legacy.
On the other hand, the Brash Road Vineyard echoes a modern tale of sustainability and innovation. With the esteemed certification of sustainability, this vineyard represents a commitment to nurturing the land that nurtures us. The vines flourish in an ecosystem where balance reigns supreme. Brash Road Vineyard stands as a model for the harmonious coexistence of agriculture and nature.
The combination of these vineyards with their meticulous winemaking craftsmanship results in wines that transcend expectations. The Mediterranean-like climate of the region, characterised by temperate breezes and fertile soils, imparts a distinct personality to our creations. The essence of Margaret River flows through every bottle, reflecting the region's unique terroir.
With Swings & Roundabouts, it's not just about what's in the bottle; it's about the journey that brings that bottle to life.
