Deeper in colour than the RP, and upon pouring you cannot help but notice how different the two wines are. Savoury Indian spices, dried flowers, fresh compost, Serrano, cherry, rhubarb, plum and a certain amaro quality. Fleshy and pure, texturally complex, from silk to velvet to black tea tannin. Absolutely on another level to almost any Australian pinot noir, and unmatched in its individuality. This is unashamedly Australian, and I love the fact that whilst bearing all the varietal hallmarks you could hope for, this is not Burgundy, but pinot from Geelong. Such a long finish, not driven, but long on flavour, holding for minutes. Waters Wine Co
These two Pinots share a symmetry. There’s recognisable DNA from the house of Farr that’s undeniable, something that’s becoming more exclusive in modern wine making. The concept of tasting a wine and being able to tell who made it, is more and more uncommon. Thankfully, that’s never been an issue from the Farrs. The difference between the two Pinots comes primarily from the site within the property, trellising and handling. Tout Pres, from its miniature and densely packed vines delivers a wine of greater density of palate too. That fuller texture gives the wine more richness, palate weight and more noticeable softness. The Tout Prés has more sweet perfume, aromatic wood and more toasty, chocolate and mocha warmth, yet follows the path of brilliant freshness and expressive tension.’ Ben Knight for Nick Farr

A full succulent raspberry and fresh plum […]

A bright crimson red. After a few good few swirls, aromas of ripe raspberries, black cherries, wild herbs and some crushed violets soon emerge. The palate, though, doesn’t need much coaxing, and this silken, sappy wine has excellent depth and persistence. Will be even better six to 12 months from now. 96 points – Philip […]

Gee it’s lovely. There’s not a hair out of place. Beautifully pure red berry and raspberry fruits with great carry of aroma and […]
Add to cart Producer: Home HillThe 2021 Toolangi Pinot has a nice array of expression so early here that’s good to see! Rose petal spiced plum and strawberries with some crushed nutmeg on the nose. The palate exhibits similar flavour spectrum with some nice density to it, trademark Toolangi tannin to close but its fresh and ready to go! Fruit […]
