Tasting Notes

With every year that passes, the Tout Pres vineyard’s subtleness and delicate fruit structure are becoming increasingly pronounced in the wine. The bouquet fills the glass with spicy fruit, mineral elements and a hint of integrated French oak, with the darkness and essence of the Moorabool Valley true expressions of site. This wine exhibits primary and secondary flavours, which strengthen the overall integration for a seamless finish. It is a tightly packed combination of plums and undergrowth with an edgy acidity—and one of our favourite drops.

Product Highlights

Nick Farr’s rise to the top of the By Farr dynasty is now complete. In 2019, he assumed full control over day-to-day viticultural work and vinification, and the wines have since reflected his unwavering dedication. Today, he stands firmly as Australia’s Pinot Noir Master.

These new releases live up to that lofty title. No expense is spared, with every step in the vineyard and winemaking process designed to emulate the finest Grand Cru wines of Burgundy – all with a distinctly Victorian flair and majesty. What sets these wines apart is the meticulous attention to detail and refinement, honed over years to create the unique By Farr signature.

This is not about sweeping changes or drastic shifts in style but rather the subtle, considered tweaks – adjustments to oak regimes, canopy heights, picking windows, or the use of stems and whole clusters – that define the enduring excellence of this iconic winery.

Take the 2024 Tout Pres, for example. Sourced from a densely planted vineyard (Tout Près means “very close”), this site is challenging to work, but the results are always extraordinary. Traditionally, it represents the most delicate and intriguing wine in the By Farr portfolio, offering unmatched complexity and individuality in the Southern Hemisphere.

Expect a sensory journey, with ripe berries (raspberry, alpine strawberry, and cranberry) layered alongside sweet spice, cardamom, dill, sour cherry, graphite, and pepper.
