Review from Huon on the previous vintage
Medium-depth bright red-purple; intense and punchy smoky and stemmy whole-bunchy aromas, charred timber, dark fruits, dried herbs. The palate is again punchy and loaded with serious tannins, finishing with good length and plenty of ripe, savoury, powdery tannins. Impressive style. (96) HUON HOOKE

I’ve had so many of these amazing wines, my compass only has true north. The needle oscillates a little, but no more than a meander down an equally beautiful path. As I clumsily type this metaphor, I want it to mean that I’ve never had to search for my bearings, the wine is always in the right place. The new Farrside is no exception, as it delivers notes of earth, petals, dark ripe fruit and black tea. It smells of spices, dried herbs and lifted notes that remind me of the stems that give this wine such power and life. There is a generosity in evolution to this wine, it is not merely tight and firm, it has softened, it has unfurled, and makes you go back to the glass, time and time again. BEN KNIGHT
