1996 Bannockburn Pinot Noir
GEELONG
SoldOut January Release Pinot Noir
The Pinot Noir grape variety has proved to be a challenge that has defeated some of our finest winemaking talent. Others have produced the miracle vintage, never to be repeated. Only one Winemaker has produced a superior wine each year for the last decade, and his name is Gary Farr. This wine continues this regal dynasty, as Gary refines his winemaking techniques and extracts every nuance of flavor balanced with structure, to make a Pinot Noir that is both delicate but with the capacity for bottle aging......

1997 Bannockburn Pinot Noir
GEELONG
SoldOut January Release Pinot Noir
It is quite remarkable that with this most fickle of grape varieties Gary Farr has carved out a reputation for consistency. The quality level seems to go up a notch with each subsequent vintage. 1997 was obviously a very successful year, at least for quality, as this is one of the best examples of Australian Pinot Noir, let alone from Bannockburn....

1998 Bannockburn Pinot Noir
GEELONG
SoldOut January Release Pinot Noir
First of all this is a very rare and very special wine. There will never be another one like it so purely from this perspective it is a guaranteed collectors item. The vineyards at Bannockburn were almost totally decimated by a freak hail storm a few months prior to the expected harvest date. Crop levels were down to around 10 per cent of the average crop, and let me assure you these vineyards are low cropping every year......

1998 Clarendon Hills "Hickinbotham" Pinot Noir
CLARENDON
SoldOut January Release Pinot Noir
Generally Roman is best regarded for his bigger heavier reds, particularly Shiraz and Grenache, but given the right fruit he is equally adept in the more delicate and ethereal variety of Pinot Noir. This is Roman’s first release of Pinot. For those who don’t know him, his passion is Burgundy, his winemaking philosophy is Burgundian. Hnece not surprisingly the aromas of this wine are pure Burgundy. Smoky bacon bones, sweet and sour chutney, mushrooms and earth......

1999 Bannockburn by Farr Pinot Noir
GEELONG
SoldOut January Release Pinot Noir
This is the “first time” release of a Gary Farr under his own label.
The first crop should have been from the 1998 vintage however that was virtually wiped out with a freak hailstorm. So this is Gary’s own wine and whilst it shares many similar traits with the Bannockburn Vineyards wine it has its own unique flavor and style......

1999 Bannockburn Pinot Noir
GEELONG
SoldOut January Release Pinot Noir
This is serious Pinot! The nose scream out dark cherry, smoked meat nuances, with hints of exotic spices. Elegant rather than abrupt. The palate follows a similar path. Layers of cherry, both high pitched and dark, as well light touches of plum, with bacon fat. Hints of spice, even cinnamon lie underneath. This is an immensely complex wine......
