2024 By Farr Farrside Pinot Noir

From the cellars of 2021 Gourmet Traveller ‘Winemaker of the Year’ & 2022 +2025 Real Review 'Winery of the Year'

The Farrside Pinot Noir, from vines planted in 2001 on the Farr estate, continues to evolve as one of the most compelling single-vineyard Pinots in Australia.

The warmer 2024 vintage shifts the dial slightly from the cool 2023, turning out a release that is a bit fuller, more powerful, and packed with extra muscle, without losing the savoury spicy character this cuvee is famous for. 

The nose is loaded with dark cherries, black plum, and a flicker of woodsy spice. The palate is fleshy and satisfying, where a creamy texture and rich varietal depth swirl together with layers of clove and a fine mineral edge from the site’s limestone and volcanic soils. The power here is beautifully harnessed, framed by a denser, more commanding tannin structure that will only deepen with time.

It remains a standout for collectors, but the extra flesh and power from the 2024 season make it an absolute joy to drink in its youth when the moment calls.

"There is, simply, no such thing as a boring By Farr wine."
