Tasting Notes
The Irrewarra Pinot Noir from Nick Farr is yet another example of his winemaking prowess, with fruit-driven power and incredible structure.
The fruit comes from a dry-grown (ie. unirrigated) plot planted in 2001 by the Calvert family, which can now be considered mature. The climate is quite different to the other vineyards used in the By Farr range, with lots of rainfall and free-draining soils. The grapes live alongside the cows but it looks like they don't realise how yummy they are (particularly after fermentation).
Red cherries, fresh, sweet and sour, are joined by some cinnamon spice, musk and earth in this cracking wine, which is silky, bright and very easy to polish off in one sitting.

Sit back and take in the aromas from a glass of this pinot as you think about sitting at the top of the vineyard surrounded by cows, water, grass and all things Western District farming. Sweet and sour cherries, earth, spice and a lovely elegant structure.
