Farvie Mourvedre 2023

/100

Mittleres, leuchtendes Rubinrot mit dicken eingefärbten Tränen am Glasrand. Schon in der Nase vibriert die dunkle Beerenfrucht spannungsgeladen! Konzentrierte schwarze und süße rote Kirsche, auch etwas Kirschlikör mit Menthol, Maulbeeren, Zwetschgen, getrocknete Kräuter, duftendes Heu und viel braune Würze. Die Mineralität stellt sich in dem Wein intensiv und krass mineralisch, rauchig wie nackter Granit dar. Im Mund liefert der Stoff dann einen Drahtseilakt aus unendlich vielen, geschliffenen aber durchaus prominenten Mourvedre-Tanninen in Kombination mit viel präziser Frische, die in Form von Sauerkirsche und schwarzer Johannisbeere spannungsgeladen über die Zunge tänzelt. Im Nachhall bleibt die Kombination aus braunen Gewürzen, knallroter Frucht und zart herber Kräuter. Dieser Stoff kann die phänomenale Kombination aus Power und Feinheit vereinen. Viele Weine aus Bandol würden hier wie schwergewichtige Muskelprotze daneben stehen. Swinney Mourvedre ist eher der muskulöse, wohldefinierte Turner, der in den Startlöchern auf dem Weg zum Sprungbrett steht. Unglaublich schick und am zweiten Tag sogar noch besser! Der Wein wird mit ein paar Jahren Flaschenreife oder nach ein paar Stunden in der Karaffe erst richtig loslegen!

Winepilot über: Farvie Mourvedre

Oh yes, I love this wine. It has a beautiful perfume and brightness evident on the nose and the palate. This is bush vine Mourvèdre. The structure and palate poise are exceptional. The rustic edges are slightly knocked off. Meaty chorizo but it’s subtle. These characters are trimmed. And in a year like 23, Mourvèdre has less acidity. It has a slightly ironstone rusty nail thread running through it with a tense dry tannin feel in the mouth. It was matured in a single 16-litre vat that has no direct oak impact. The attention to detail is demonstrated by the management of the bush vine canopies allowing attention to each bunch with the resulting uniformity of fruit. Traces of blue fruits with a subtle licorice and tarry character, the wine is lightly more supple and revealing than the Grenache yet less open and opulent than the Syrah.

Matthew Jukes über: Farvie Mourvedre

This time, the recipe involves 66% whole bunches, and the alcohol level is 13.8%. The fruit comes from the same source as the Grenache. Farvie Mourvèdre is more expansive, and it is immediately convivial. This variety’s softer impact and more open-armed expression lull you into a false sense of security before the trademark Farvie minerality attacks without warning or mercy. The moisture is sucked from the palate and is replaced with stoniness and skin characters that tease and striate. These palate manoeuvres cause rivulets of juiciness to collect, which refresh the senses with clean, free-running, open and gentle red and purple fruit flavours. It is stunning. There are discreet moments of fleshiness and controlled eroticism that work wonders from a pheromonal level. Fig notes and fresh-peeled bark abound, and it glistens with carnality. The fact that the well of profound fruit notes senesces to a single point of awesome and arresting dryness is entirely compelling.

Parker über: Farvie Mourvedre

I am so glad that the Farvie range now—since the inaugural vintage in 2021—includes a Mourvèdre. The vineyard is a special place in Frankland River, the bush vines bearing against the seasons atop a rolling slope, set among a wider vineyard area. This tiny pocket accounts for just 2% of the Swinney vineyard holdings, tiny when you consider that. The 2023 Farvie Mourvèdre is less sweetly fruited than the Grenache tasted alongside, with a core of earthy, pure fruit, wrapped by a sheath of grippy, finely milled tannins. This is Mourvèdre every day of the week, yet it has grace and elegance rarely seen in the variety in Australia. It's a significant wine in many respects, not the least will be its long aging potential and its distinct personality. It's very good indeed and very different in each set of vintage conditions. Aside from the tannins, which I absolutely love in every way, the perfume is the most captivating bit about this wine—wet garden roses, petrichor, summer berries, red gravel and dry incense spice—and the perfume permeates the finish. I like it more and more the longer it sits in the glass.
