With little rain and a hot sun overhead, the Swan Valley’s earth plays the perfect host to world-class varieties of Chenin Blanc, Verdelho, Shiraz, Cabernet and Petit Verdot. The long, hot summers mean grapes can be treated to extra ripening time, creating the ultra high sugar levels needed for fortifieds and rare and coveted liqueurs such as Shiraz and Verdelho.
