TASTING NOTES

By Farr 'Farrside' Pinot Noir 2023 is a distinguished expression of premium cool-climate viticulture, hailing from a northeast-facing slope with unique limestone and black volcanic soils. Planted in 2001, the vines benefit from an east-west orientation that shields the grapes from excessive sun exposure, resulting in a wine of remarkable balance and complexity.

This Pinot Noir showcases a sophisticated blend of clones 114, 115, 777, 667, and MV6, cultivated in terroir that imparts a distinct masculine edge and structural depth. The Farrside vineyard's cooler conditions and darker soils delay harvest by 10 to 12 days compared to neighboring sites, allowing the grapes to develop intense, savory flavors alongside vibrant red and black fruit notes.

The 2023 vintage continues the tradition of producing a firm yet delicate wine, marked by deep meaty, spicy, and mineral undertones that evolve beautifully on the palate. Its fresh, edgy character is balanced by a long, textured finish, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a Pinot Noir with both elegance and bold personality.

As a Gourmet Traveller Winemaker of the Year accolade recipient, By Farr consistently delivers wines that reflect meticulous craftsmanship and a profound sense of place. The Farrside Pinot Noir 2023 is no exception—offering a compelling combination of structure, savoury complexity, and vibrant fruit that stands out in the premium wine category.

Perfectly suited to pair with a variety of dishes or to enjoy on its own, this Pinot Noir invites exploration and appreciation of its nuanced layers. Experience the distinctive character of the Adelaide Hills region through a wine that embodies both tradition and innovation.
