Irrewarra Chardonnay 2023

The Irrewarra Chardonnay is a stunning wine at a great price, and it's easy to see the delicate By Farr touch.

The fruit comes from a dry-grown (ie. unirrigated) plot planted in 2001 by the Calvert family, which can now be considered mature. The climate is quite different to the other vineyards used in the By Farr range, with lots of rainfall and free-draining soils. The Chardonnay fruit shows intense minerality and always displays great acidity.

Citrus, peach, nuts, toast and a slight lick of oak greet you warmly, and the acid and minerality freshen the palate immensely. Give it another year or two to rest before consuming the entire bottle in one sitting (with friends and family, of course).
