The By Farr R.P. Pinot Noir 2022 is a tribute to Robyn Pamela Farr, the matriarch of the Farr family, whose tireless dedication has been a cornerstone in building this remarkable Australian wine dynasty. For over 40 years, Robyn has not only supported Gary in his winemaking journey but has been a hands-on partner in every aspect of the vineyard and winery operations, from planting the first vines to late-night grape stomping. This wine is a reflection of Robyn’s unwavering commitment and love for the land and the family’s craft.
Sourced from the Côte vineyard, arguably the estate’s most significant site, the R.P. Pinot Noir is an ethereal expression of Pinot Noir. The vineyard’s perfect clones, aspect, and viticultural techniques form the foundation of a wine that is light yet complex, delicate yet structured. The fruit is hand-picked, sorted, and fermented with natural yeasts, undergoing a cold soak and pigeage (grape-stomping) to extract the purest expression of the fruit. Aged for 18 months in a mix of new French oak barrels, this wine captures the finesse, depth, and elegance that the Farr family has spent years perfecting.
This Pinot Noir is beautifully perfumed with layers of spice, dark fruits, and earthy notes, leading to a smooth, fine tannin structure. It’s an expression of both the land and the artistry of the winemaker, creating a wine that’s both sophisticated and rapturous. A true testament to the pursuit of excellence that has defined the Farr family’s winemaking journey.
