2025 By Farr Viognier

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

The 2025 By Farr Viognier once again shows just how thrilling this variety can be in the right hands. Nick Farr’s touch brings out both the richness and the tension that make this wine so compelling.

Picked early as always to avoid sunburn and retain freshness, the fruit from the family vineyard has captured both flavour and that all-important thread of minerality. It's foot-stomped, left on skins for a couple hours, then pressed straight to barrel with all solids for a natural fermentation.  Gentle lees stirring encourages malo and builds texture.

This is Viognier that defies the stereotypes: weighty yet refined, with a velvety texture balanced by bright acidity and a savoury, saline edge. You’ll find layers of peach, ginger spice, chalk and flint, wrapped in subtle oak and lees-derived complexity. It’s luscious, structured, and already drinking beautifully, though it will reward time in the cellar.

Fast becoming one of the cult classics of the Farr range, this is a benchmark Australian Viognier.

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