Description
The Shiraz by Farr is Shiraz reimagined - made with the finesse and detail more often reserved for Pinot Noir, and the 2023 release is a breathtaking example of this approach.
Sourced from the original 1994 plantings on the estate, this is cool-climate Shiraz at its most seductive. A small portion of Viognier is co-fermented, weaving in lifted aromatics and a silky texture. The cool, wet spring of 2023, followed by a long, gentle ripening, shaped a wine of remarkable poise and fine structure - the smallest harvest since 2002, but packed with intensity.
On the nose: black cherry, plum, black olive, a flicker of floral perfume and spice. The palate is slippery, savoury and saline, with white pepper, clove and a lick of barrel spice, all wrapped around vibrant acidity that keeps the flavours fresh and moreish.
There’s a Northern Rhône-like elegance here, but with a clear sense of Moorabool Valley identity. This is a cool-climate Shiraz that’s impossible to resist - gluttonous joy in a glass and unquestionably the dark horse in the By Farr range.
