Am I sticking my neck out by saying this is one of the best Chardonnays produced in Australia? Not really.
"Super sleek, intense nose, thrilling acid lines, of ripe citrus and river pebbles. It’s mouth-watering, saline and brimming with nervous energy. This shows an understanding of acid like few can. Amazing power for a wine of this weight, it is hard to imagine where the flavour is hiding. Beyond impressive." - Nick Farr
"The By Farr chardonnay comes from the same site as the Sangreal pinot noir—composed of red soil over limestone—and was planted in 1994. The limestone of this site is not exposed on the surface as at other sites. The limestone starts 20 to 30cm below the surface, to the depths of the root zone of the vines. It is a very exposed north-facing slope. The clones used for the chardonnay are a mixture of Dijon clones and Penfolds 58."
