      The Farr Rising Geelong Pinot Noir 2023 is a stunning expression of Nick Farr’s winemaking vision, crafted from a single block of the Farr Rising vineyard in Geelong. Planted in 2001 with a mix of rootstocks and three carefully selected clones (MV6, 114, and 115), the vineyard sits on a north-facing slope with a unique combination of grey sandy loam, ironstone pebbles, and volcanic soils over limestone. This perfect terroir results in Pinot Noir fruit with softness and minerality, paired with depth and structure that only grows stronger over time. Hand-harvested and sorted in the vineyard, the wine is fermented in an open-top fermenter, with a portion of whole bunches retained for fermentation, and then aged in a mix of new and seasoned Allier barrels for 18 months. The result is a Pinot Noir that balances fruit purity with savoury complexity, offering a truly remarkable example of the Farr family’s house style.

      The Farr Rising Geelong Pinot Noir 2023 is an exceptional expression of Pinot Noir from one of Australia’s most respected wine families. It combines richness and elegance, with the depth and structure that make it an excellent wine for both immediate enjoyment and long-term cellaring. Perfect for those seeking a Pinot Noir with complexity, balance, and great ageing potential.

      By Farr

      The By Farr winery, established by Gary Farr in 1994, has become one of the most prestigious names in Australian winemaking. Situated in the Geelong region, specifically in the Moorabool Valley, the winery is known for its meticulous, hands-off approach to winemaking. With a strong commitment to organic and biodynamic practices, By Farr is recognised for producing wines that are a true expression of their terroir, particularly Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. Gary Farr, a pioneer of Pinot Noir in the region, has passed down his expertise to his son, Nick Farr, who has now fully taken the reins of the winery. Under Nick’s leadership, By Farr continues to produce exceptional wines that have garnered critical acclaim both in Australia and internationally. Each bottle of By Farr wine reflects the family’s dedication to craftsmanship, sustainability, and the pursuit of perfection in every vintage.

      Tasting notes

      NOSE
      Perfumed, Delicate, Floral

      The nose opens with soft, perfumed aromas of red fruits, accompanied by subtle floral notes. It evolves over time to reveal hints of earthy minerality and warm, toasty oak.

      PALATE
      Juicy, Structured, Mineral

      The palate shows an enticing sweetness, followed by layers of mineral complexity. Rich fruit flavours of ripe cherries and raspberries are balanced by the elegant influence of oak, with a smooth, silky texture that builds across the palate.

      FINISH
      Savoury, Long, Balanced

      The finish is long and savoury, with defined tannins and a refreshing minerality that lingers. The wine's structure and balance ensure it will continue to evolve with age, providing an enduring and sophisticated aftertaste.
