The length of palate is immortal.

Reviews + Accolades Here the nose is both spicier and fresher with its mix of red and dark currant, cassis and soft wood nuances. There is lovely delineation to the energetic middle weight flavors that exhibit more minerality on the balanced, linear and very firm finale. This should age gracefully and is a wine that will need at least 6 to 8 years first. Drink 2031+ - Burghound, 93 Points.

This vintage has produced a Pinot Noir displaying ripe rich aromatics; perfumed black fruits of the forest dominate the aroma and these are underpinned by lovely clove, anise and other brown spice notes. The wine displays lovely elegance and flows with striking precision and clarity. On the palate it kicks off with a supple dark berry entry, moving into a beautifully textured plush mid-palate, after which fine elegant textural tannins frame fruit and acidity on a lengthy finish. Mt Difficulty Bannockburn Pinot Noir will improve for 7-10 years given optimal vintage and cellaring conditions.

Product Description: A pale red with serious intent—Jura in all its ethereal glory. Domaine du Pélican’s 2023 Poulsard is as beguiling as the grape itself: translucent in the glass yet full of energy, character, and gastronomic charm. Made from old vines across Arbois and Montigny-lès-Arsures, including parcels once tended by Jura icon Jacques Puffeney, this cuvée has become a staple of the estate since 2015. Vinified gently with full destemming and no punch-downs, then aged in stainless steel to preserve freshness, this is a wine that embraces its light hue and expressive aromatic profile. The 2023 vintage, shaped by a warm end to the season, delivers lifted red berries, rose petals, and earthy spice. Don’t let the colour fool you—there’s depth and precision beneath the surface. Best served slightly chilled, this Poulsard plays beautifully with charcuterie, mushroom risotto, or a classic roast quail. Also a joy to drink solo, when its gossamer touch and layered aromatics really shine. Tasting Notes NOSE – Bright and floral Strawberries, dried roses and a whiff of liquorice, underpinned by earthy spice and crushed herbs. PALATE – Silken and savoury Delicate yet vibrant, with cranberry and wild strawberry flavours, fine tannins, and subtle herbal lift. FINISH – Lingering and graceful Airy and aromatic, fading slowly with notes of red tea, florals, and soft spice.

Every Gary Farr wine is a work of art, obsession and passion. Considered Australia's finest Pinot Noir winemaker this is his signature varietal from his home ground. No explanation should be required to make the decision to buy any Pinot from Mr Farr. Be warned - highly habit-forming.

Pinot Noir in its most pure form. Outstanding fruit concentration is immediately apparent. A very tight-knit wine in all facets, reflecting the passion and respect that Gary Farr has for this noble grape variety. Knife edge precision, ethereal flavours and a gracious, balanced finish. Bravo.
