Chardonnay grapes from Clarksburg have characteristic of apple and pear aroma. This creates an elegant counterpart, full of fresh fruit, including touches of pineapple and guava. The elegant and creamy mouthfeel wraps around the fruit and leads to tones of spice, nutmeg and toasty vanilla.

This is our best selling chardonnay!

White stone fruit flavours with a good acid backbone and great use of oak.

This is a classic style chardonnay but one of the good ones that survived past the 80's!

Saignee, technically meaning “to bleed game meat or poultry”, refers to the way we ‘bleed’ juice for this wine. We allow the Farr Rising pinot noir fruit to sit in tank for two to three hours before bleeding free-run juice at a suitable colour for rosé production. This process concentrates the pinot ferment, but we also produce a barrel-fermented rosé. Natural barrel fermentation at cool temperatures is followed by full malolacitc fermentation. The wine is then placed in four- and five-year-old barrels for 10 months before being filtered and bottled.

The Farr Rising chardonnay sits next to the Farr Rising pinot noir vineyard. Unlike the black soil of the latter, however, the chardonnays' soil has a large proportion of grey loam. This vineyard is more protected than other sites because of its undulation, but fertility and growing levels remain very low. The clones used for the chardonnay are a mixture of Dijon clones and Penfolds 58, all planted in 2001.

A deliciously mineral and slippery drink. An array of citrus and complexity lined with a fantastic backbone of acidity. Perhaps a bottle to be consumed by yourself.
