Blessings Of Bondar»
An ongoing resurrection of some fabulous old vines, a distinguished Blewitt Springs site and a range of the most spectacular McLaren Vale wines. When Kelly and Bondar acquired Rayner Vineyard in 2013, they knew that everything depended on the management of site and soil to achieve the excellence of wine they had in mind. The most fastidious husbanding regimens and a tightly scheduled evolution towards organic viticulture, the propitious Rayner vines have never yielded finer harvests, all translating into a tour de force across the entire Bondar range. Salient quality and penurious pricing make for a compelling mix. Old vines grown to salubrious soils, the harvest timed to perfection, a precision picking of fruit at just the right hour of day, aimed at capturing and bottling the exquisite expression of place. Bondar's graceful Grenache releases are brimming with bright tri-colour fruits, delicately laced by genteel acidity. Alongside the profound freshness and superior structure, there's even greater character and elocution of terroir and.. Model mclaren macerations»

Swings Roundabouts Kiss Chasey White 2011 CONFIRM 2011 VINTAGE

Kiss Chasey White 2011 - Buy
Margaret River Western Australia
An exciting blend of grapes which changes each year to accomodate the influences of vintage. Chenin Blanc and Verdelho, Chardonnay, Semillon and Sauvignon Blanc may be called upon in varying proportions to construct a rejuvenating, crisp Margaret River white that's devilishly seamless on the palate, generous with good fruit and fine length, balanced by delicate acidity. It's been plainly named so you don't get caught up in the technicality. Kiss Chasey is revitalizing, youthful and relaxed, as easy going as the beachlife around Margaret River.

Swings & Roundabouts are headquartered in Margaret River, whence they call upon harvests of the finest fruit to fashion the essential West Australian style of white. Having earned a reputation as one of the region's leading winemakers, Mark Lane has pulled together a young and enthusiastic team to establish his dynamic Swings & Roundabouts label. Mark found his way to Margaret River in a roundabout way. For a while he made cheese in Melbourne, served apprenticeships in the Yarra Valley with the likes of Tarrawarra and Eyton before making the trek west to take up position as chief winemaker with Deep Woods and Flying Fish Cove wines.
Pale yellow straw with hints of green. Ripe and fragrant with honeysuckle, kiwifruit and ripe tropical notes. Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon contribute lift and refreshing verve to the wine. Chardonnay adds mouthfeel and creaminess. The palate is clean and zingy with some easy fruit sweetness balanced by a long, crisp finish. Enjoy now alongside a freshly tossed avocado and prawn, asparagus and citrus salad.

Margaret River’s micro climate is now well recognized as having great advantage for super premium wine crafting, unique soils, warm summers with cooling afternoon sea breezes and wet and cold winters make it grape heaven.

Mark Lane runs the show. He found his way to Margaret River in a roundabout way. For a while he made cheese in Melbourne. No doubt interesting, but why would you do that if you can do this! He gained winemaking apprenticeships in the Yarra Valley with the likes of Tarrawarra and Eyton-on-Yarra before making the trek west to take up the position of Chief Winemaker with Deep Woods and then Flying Fish Cove wines.

Mark Lane and the team are well credentialed, serious winemaking chaps who have, according to wine reviewer Ray Jordan won a “staggering list of awards”. But while stern faced about the wine itself, the rest is pretty relaxed. Margaret River is a cool and casual place to hang out so you’ll find the personalities here very friendly and far from intimidating.

Swings Roundabouts

Having developed a reputation as one of Margaret River’s leading winemakers, Mark has pulled together a young and enthusiastic team to establish Swings & Roundabouts…all keen to make a difference. He balances life by cooking, taking his teenage daughter to local concerts and driving fast cars fast. He enjoys a complete lack of interest in football (astonishing for a Victorian!) and music makes him happy (so the t-shirt says).

The estate's winemaking operation is also home, and it's been equipped with all that is important to the winemakers. A wood fire pizza oven, a serious coffee machine, lots of comfy leather sofas…and of course the wines. The vine-shaded verandah helps escape those hot summer days, with view over rolling hills, vines and kangaroos.
