Bannockburn Chardonnay 2023
Drawn mostly from the Estate's Olive Tree Hill Vineyard (planted in 1976) and Winery Block (1981), on volcanic soils over limestone, the average age of vines sits around the 35-year-old mark.
2023 also includes fruit from Stuart Block (1997) and Kelly Lane Vineyard (2016). Due to the minuscule yields in 2023, the Bannockburn team could not make a Grigsby Chardonnay, so fruit from this exceptional, close-planted block was also included in this wine.

Bannockburn Grigsby Chardonnay 2022
Producer Note - "Grigsby is our close planted, certified organic Chardonnay block planted in 2007. Named in honour of our viticulturalist Lucas Grigsby, who has been with us since 1987; this block continues our explorations into high-density viticulture, this time with Chardonnay"
"Light-medium yellow colour with a rich and toasty/oaky bouquet that enshrines nougat, roasted hazelnuts and creamy lees derived facets. A very complex chardonnay, full and rich and generous in the mouth with a long-lasting aftertaste. A ripping chardonnay." … more

Bannockburn Pinot Noir 2023
This excellent release is an amalgamation of Bannockburn's entire spectrum of vineyards. The 2023 includes fruit from Olive Tree Hill, planted in 1976, 10 Rows (1991), Stuart Block (1997) and Anns Block (2004). As with the Chardonnay, 2023's paltry yields meant the team could not make De La Terre Pinot Noir, so fruit from that close-planted block was included in this blend.

Bannockburn S.R.H. Chardonnay 2023
96 points, Erin Larkin, The Wine Companion "The 2023 SRH Chardonnay is textural and taut; it is bound in phenolics at this point, but clearly superb. The length of flavour shows this. The complexity shows this. It's a hugely impressive wine that speaks of white peach, green apples, green olive brine, white strawberries and white pepper. It's salty and a little chewy. This will be a seriously great wine-give it time. 13.5% alcohol, sealed under screw cap."

Bannockburn Serré Pinot Noir 2023
95+ points, Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front "This is autumnal and sinewy and savoury and spiced, but it's also sleek, harmonious and settled. It bursts onto the palate with red cherries, rhubarb, tangerine and strawberry, with inlays of dried leaves, pepper and smoked cedarwood, but it's the soft-firm of the finish, and the way it seems to both dry and expand at once, and the way the juices keep flowing and fanning, that really mark its quality. It's a top … more

By Farr "RP" Cote Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022
"The RP Pinot Noir (RP - Robyn Pamela) is in recognition of the matriarch. It is not only the support and goffering that Robyn has endured for Gary's 40 year career. She has been in the vineyard and planted the first vines, driven the tractors, filled barrels and pigeaged at midnight. If we are ever a man down Robyn has always been the first one we have called to fill the void. You can always count on mum. This wine … more

By Farr Farrside Pinot Noir 2022
"The Farrside vineyard consists of black volcanic soil over limestone on a northeast-facing slope. The vine rows run east to west to shade the fruit from over exposure. It's a mixture of 114, 115, 777, 667 and MV6 clones. Although the Farrside and Sangreal vineyards are only 300m apart, the differing conditions mean that this vineyard is picked 10 to 12 days later. The darker soils and cooler growing conditions give a more masculine and edgy wine.

By Farr Shiraz 2021
"Shiraz fruit comes from the original By Farr vineyard, planted in 1994. It lies on a north-facing slope, and the red volcanic soil has a base of limestone with deep-set sandstone. All fruit is hand-picked from the VSP trellising, with about 15% left as whole bunches in the fermentation. Most years we co-ferment between 2 and 4% Viognier with the Shiraz, the date determining whether or not the former is co-fermented and bleed back. It is a natural fermentation, with … more

By Farr Viognier 2022
The By Farr viognier consists of a blend of fruit from two vineyards. The first is the original house block, planted in 1994, which is friable red soil over limestone leading to sandstone-similar soils to the Sangreal pinot noir and By Farr chardonnay. The second vineyard is a younger planting of unknown clones in red ironstone soil. The viognier is a difficult variety to manage as it has a tendency to grow horizontally rather than vertically, needs a lot of … more

Heroes Vineyard 'Anti Hero' Pinot Meunier 2022
Often lost in the shadow of its dominating cousin, Pinot Noir, Meunier is the shier, prettier one of the two. Take the Anti-Hero Meunier for example, its vibrant and breathy, bursting at the seams with scents of tart cranberries, fresh raspberries and whispers of green tea and pink peppercorn.
