2021 Shiraz, By Farr, Geelong, Victoria
The Shiraz is sourced from the original By Farr vineyard planted in 1994. The fruit is hand picked and 20% is whole bunch fermented. The Shiraz is co-fermented with two to four percent of Viognier and is aged for 18 months in French oak barrels, of which 20% is new. On the nose, it is powerful and deeply concentrated, showcasing the complexity of cool climate Shiraz.The palate is defined by notes of spice and earthy undertones, with co-fermented Viognier adding both richness and a touch of sweetness. Combined with structured tannins, this creates a long, elegant and earthy finish. A complex cool climate Shiraz.
