By combining those two characteristics we get a really classic Grüner Veltliner with both finesse and a certain vigor.
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!

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.
An amazing smoothness and calmness that stretches the length of the palate, surrounded with textured fruit and mineral elements.
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.
Deep yellow. Aromas of white flower, pear, and a hint of pineapple. Medium bodied with a silky texture on the palate, lots of pear, peach and lemony notes.

A very rich aroma teasing the palate which is well balanced, zesty and with a pleasant finish of white fruit as only an Italian Pinot Grigio can do!
An outstanding olfactory complexity of mature exotic fruit and yellow citrus fruits. On the palate it has good freshness with a long finish of sweet almond and vanilla. Thanks to its structure this wine has a good aging potential.
A pale yellow colour, its bouquet bursting with notes of flowers (hawthorn and jasmine) and yellow fresh fruits (drupe, peach and apricots). On the palate, the wine is medium bodied and flavoursome, full of fruit, with clear mineral notes.
Subtle stone fruit aromas fill the nose, while the depth in fruit flavours of pears and citrus are complemented by subtle oak notes to provide a refined and balanced palate with a lingering finish.
Grown from the Alsatian GM-198 clone, the palate is bursting with juicy citrus before mineral acidity floods the finish.
