Swan Valley fortified wines are some of the most unique and complex produced anywhere in the world, often blended from many vintages, and rated among the world’s best.
Our winemaking heritage and the Mediterranean climate allows for the production of rich, luscious liqueurs made from Muscat and Pedro Ximénez, as well as Shiraz, Verdelho and aged tawny fortified wines.
With warm, dry summers, winemakers have the luxury of allowing the fruit to slightly dry on the vine before harvesting, which increases sugar and intensifies and concentrates flavours.
The grape varieties used to produce fortified wines in the Swan Valley include Shiraz, Verdelho, Pedro Ximénez, Grenache, Muscat, and Touriga Nacional.
The main styles of fortified wine made in the Swan Valley are Vintage Fortified, Tawny, Liqueur, and Apera.
