By Farr Pinot Noir 2022

Description

Product Description:Depth, poise and site expression define this assured Geelong Pinot Noir. The 2022 By Farr Pinot Noir is drawn from estate vineyards in the Moorabool Valley, where ancient volcanic soils and a cool, wind-influenced climate shape wines of structure and restraint. This cuvee reflects the Farr family’s long-standing commitment to traditional, site-driven winemaking, favouring balance and longevity over overt ripeness. In the glass, the wine shows clarity and focus, with pure red and dark fruit supported by savoury and mineral undertones. Fermentation with indigenous yeasts and maturation in French oak contribute complexity while preserving freshness and detail. The 2022 vintage offers a harmonious interplay of fruit concentration, fine tannins and vibrant acidity, giving the wine both immediate appeal and cellaring promise. There is an underlying seriousness to the palate, where texture and structure are as important as flavour. This Pinot Noir speaks clearly of its origin, delivering elegance without sacrificing depth. It is a refined yet confident expression of Geelong Pinot Noir, suited to both the table and the cellar.
