Farr Rising Pinot Noir 2022

Our Verdict

A version of this wine that perhaps shows more elegance than in the previous year.  Vibrant red fruits and spice, a lightness of palate, but richness of flavour.  The Top Block vineyard in Bannockburn that is home to this wine, offers softness and polished fruit expression, and lovely acid holding everything in place.  It’s aromatic, utterly pleasing and one of the more intriguing Farr Rising Pinot’s to date.

The wine typically shows a soft perfumed nose, which begins to build. The palate has sweetness, followed by mineral overtones enhanced by toasty oak, and firm flavours with a long and savoury finish. This is a gem of a wine, with ageing potential of five to eight years from most vintages.
