Wrights Vine­yard Collaboration

It’s all about the wine

Wrights Vine­yard For­ti­fied Chardon­nay is crys­talline and bright in the glass, the nose is imme­di­ate­ly com­plex and entic­ing with white blos­som and stone fruits lay­ered with exot­ic fruit notes and sub­tle spice. The palate is com­pelling and indi­vid­ual, with Mar­garet Riv­er Chardon­nay hall­marks of white nec­tarine and fig, but lift­ed to anoth­er lev­el by the inter­play of spir­it and resid­ual sug­ar. This cre­ates a rich, tex­tur­al com­plex­i­ty with a silken mouth­feel, bal­anced by vibrant vari­etal acid­i­ty that car­ries through to a long, ele­gant finish. 

Enjoy now, chilled or poured over ice as an aper­i­ti­vo, or allow it to evolve in bot­tle for 10 years or more to reveal deep­er lay­ers of rich­ness and intrigue. 

How it all started

Own­er and cura­tor Ian Wright spent his child­hood help­ing his fam­i­ly estab­lish Wrights Wines in Wilyabrup, one of the Mar­garet Riv­er region’s ear­li­est vine­yards. His par­ents Hen­ry and Mau­reen were pio­neer wine­mak­ers, back when there were only a hand­ful of peo­ple exper­i­ment­ing in what was then a fledg­ling enter­prise. Hen­ry and Mau­reen plant­ed their first vines 50 years ago and owned and oper­at­ed their vine­yard for 25 years, pro­duc­ing Vin­tage Port, White Port, Her­mitage, Caber­net Sauvi­gnon and a Semi­l­lon Sauvi­gnon Blanc Chardon­nay blend. Mau­reen was the wine­mak­er and the orig­i­nal vine­yard is now Juniper Estate.

Swaab Found­ed in Syd­ney in 1981 by Fred­er­ick Swaab, our firm was built on a com­mit­ment to inno­va­tion, integri­ty and excep­tion­al client ser­vice. Fred believed in help­ing clients nav­i­gate com­plex legal chal­lenges with con­fi­dence and care, while deliv­er­ing hon­est, con­sid­ered and prac­ti­cal advice. Out­side the law, he was a cham­pi­on swim­mer, long-stand­ing Board Mem­ber and Life Mem­ber of the Bon­di Ice­bergs, where his pas­sion for com­mu­ni­ty and excel­lence was equal­ly evident.
