All swell at Swings: Stylish new cellar door, new vineyard acquisition & wine experiences

Popular Margaret River Region winery Swings & Roundabouts has swung open giant timber doors to reveal a stylish new Cellar Door at its Yallingup venue, in time for the busy Summer period.

The new Cellar Door is situated in a dedicated tasting room, providing an improved wine tasting experience with Swings’ signature warmth and character.

Swings & Roundabouts Owner and CEO Andy Hopkins said the new Cellar Door build was part of a larger refurbishment plan to continue improving the already-popular Yallingup venue.

“Swings & Roundabouts is a fun family venue, and it always will be, but at the end of the day we are a winery and we are serious about our wines, as you can see with the large investment in the new cellar door.

“It will give our serious wine aficionados and the new inquisitive wine adventurers an excellent area to taste our latest and greatest in this new Exclusive cellar door area.

“It also allows us to host special events and experiences and we’re launching with a new Swings Sensory Sips premium wine tasting experience,” he said.

Swings Sensory Sips is a carefully created wine experience revealing the impact of using the right glassware to enhance the characteristics of specific wine varieties. Sniff, swirl, sip and savour Swings’ hero wines from its top tier Backyard Stories range in Plumm glassware. 

Swings & Roundabouts premium wine offering continues to grow with its recent acquisition of Brash Road Vineyard, a 24-year-old vineyard on 18 hectares on Naturaliste Ridge in the Yallingup Hills. This sustainability-certified vineyard produces Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc in low volume and high quality and has been the recipient of multiple accolades.

Brash Road grapes will balance with those from Swings’ 40-year-old Wildwood Vineyard, in the skilled hands of Chief Winemaker Jodie Barton to create wines using traditional techniques sustainably made to deliver classic Margaret River quality.

Boosting the winemaking team is Viticulturalist Jaden McLean who has recently joined Swings from Woodlands in Margaret River where he worked for many years. Jaden has been acknowledged in the Margaret River Wine Viticulture Excellence Award Hall of Fame.

Book Swings Sensory Sips online for $25 per person available daily at 10am and 2pm. The cost is redeemable for Plumm glassware and Swings & Roundabouts wine purchases.
