Perhaps the most outstanding Chardonnay from Geelong, and a candidate for Australia’s most exceptional. The combined efforts of Gary and Nick Farr come together to produce this icon, grown on a prized patch of their estate vines in the Bannockburn subregion. Highest quality oak plays support to outstanding fruit to produce a long-living, elegant and intense expression of Chardonnay.
Producer Notes
The GC Chardonnay (GC - Gary Charles) is attributed to all the knowledge we have been able to extract from Gary to create a close planted / high density planting of Chardonnay on an exposed côte. These hillsides facing North, Northeast and East will be the backbone of the Farr dynasty for decades to come. They consist of the most suitable clones, rootstocks, trellising and management you will find for our landscape. This is our tribute to what ‘Gazza’ has achieved and provoked over 40 years, not only in our region but for Chardonnay and Pinot Noir of Australia.
