  • TASTING NOTE: "Verdelho can often be the variety that aficionados turn their nose up at, but in the hands of a maestro of the grape, things look somewhat different. This has depth, texture and poise. Yes, the typical tropical fruitiness is loud and proud, but things feel well-balanced, a medium-weight fleshiness appears, trails of chalky minerality join in and the finish is long, somewhat luxurious in its trail of spice and herbal inflection. Overall, refreshing and vibrant too. A triumph." 93 Points - Mike Bennie, Halliday Wine Companion
  • ABOUT THE WINE: "Our flagship white wine, if you are looking for a great example of warm-climate white winemaking then look no further. One of the best whites in the Swan Valley. Made from cold-fermented, clean free-run juice. Released young but it will certainly age well." - Faber Vineyard
  • ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Faber Vineyard was established in 1997 by John Griffiths and Jane Micallef. Faber is the Latin word for craft. We chose the name Faber because we believe winemaking is a craft, a skill learnt but never perfected. John Griffiths spent 10 years learning the skills of making highly drinkable wines in warm climates before arriving in the Swan Valley. He recognized that the Swan Valley was unique in its ability to produce delicate, refined white wines, smooth generously flavoured and long-lived red wines, and extremely rich luscious liqueur styles. As he refined his winemaking skills he learnt about the proven grape varieties and wine styles that had over one hundred years of development and success in the Swan Valley. The Swan Valley delivers wonderful ripe fruit, warm and concentrated flavours and soft tannins. John’s winemaking focuses on achieving flavour, extraction and fruit sweetness. This creates structured wines that are flavoursome and drinkable, with the ability to develop and improve in bottle. His approach to winemaking is simple and uncomplicated – starting with outstanding fruit quality, attention to detail, and literally hand making all our wines. John has chosen to embrace what are traditional varieties for the Swan Valley – Verdelho, Shiraz and Brown Muscat – as the “backbone” of Faber Vineyard. He has delivered his own interpretation of these varieties, all be it built on tradition, and set new standards of excellence. He has also innovated with new varieties, introducing Petit Verdot to the Swan, and new styles including his Chardonnay Blanc de Blanc. He has sourced outstanding fruit from outside the Swan Valley that complements the Swan’s strengths. Superb Cabernet Sauvignon from Frankland River and unique Durif from Donnybrook stand out. Faber’s continuing winemaking quest is to grow and source distinctive grapes and craft wines that are rich and flavoursome.
