WINE DESCRIPTION

The "By Farr Viognier" is an exceptional white wine produced by the acclaimed By Farr winery, located in the Geelong region of Victoria, Australia. By Farr is renowned for its commitment to producing high-quality, terroir-driven wines, and its Viognier is no exception. The wine is made from Viognier grapes, a variety that originally hails from the Rhône Valley in France and is known for producing aromatic and full-bodied wines. In Geelong, the cool climate and unique terroir contribute to the development of intense flavors and a balanced acidity in the grapes. By Farr employs meticulous winemaking techniques, including careful hand-harvesting, fermentation with indigenous yeasts, and aging in French oak barrels. This process results in a Viognier that is both rich and elegant, showcasing the varietal's characteristic floral and fruity profile while maintaining a refined structure and complexity.

ORIGINS

Winery: By Farr

Region: Victoria

Victoria is Australia's premier wine region, located in the south-eastern corner of the continent. With a long history of winemaking, Victoria is home to some of the country's most renowned wineries and vineyards. Victoria's wine industry began due to the discovery of gold in the 1850s, leading to a influx of settlers from Europe, who brought vines and know-how from home. By 1890, Victoria was producing half of all the wine in Australia, but the spread of phylloxera in the late 19th Century and a number of wider issues, caused a decline. The industry didn't get started again until the 1960s.
