Tasting Notes

The wine has an amazing smoothness and calmness that stretches the length of the palate, surrounded with textured fruit and mineral elements. We have been playing with the fruit from these vineyards for more than 8 years, fine tuning the style of wine that these vineyards are producing. What a result once it all came together.

Product Highlights

A few names in Australia have caused a seismic shift in the wine industry, changed the game, and taken Australian wine to new heights both at home and on the global stage. One such name is By Farr. Now in their second generation of winemakers, the Farr family has been crafting exceptional wines out of the Geelong region since 1994, their long list of accolades culminating in current winemaker Nick Farr being named Gourmet Traveller’s Winemaker of the Year in 2020.

Let us present this latest new release, the GC Chardonnay, hand-harvested, wild-fermented and spent 11 months in oak; this is harmonious, balanced and elegant—an exceptional example of cool-climate Australian Chardonnay.

The GC Chardonnay (GC – Gary Charles) is attributed to all the knowledge extracted from the estate's original mastermind, Gary Farr, to create a close planted or high-density planting of Chardonnay on an exposed hilltop côte. The new plantings along the hillsides were designed to be the backbone of future vintages at Chez Farr for years to come.

40 years of knowledge and understanding of the vines, what clones work best where, the geology and the climate, have culminated in this Chardonnay. A great wine, in an already large portfolio of thoroughbreds.

A tribute to the legendary Gary Charles Farr, the GC Chardonnay is testament to the unique terroir at By Farr’s close-planted estate. Grown on north-facing slopes with distinct volcanic and loamy soils and channelling all of its magnificence into laser-focused, ripe citrus and white stone fruit flavours bound to a core of saline acidity.
