Few Australian Pinot Noirs command the same respect and cult following as By Farr’s Sangreal. From the slopes of the Farr family’s vineyard near Bannockburn in Geelong, this wine has become a benchmark for what Pinot can be when farmed with absolute precision and a gentle hand in the cellar.
Sangreal, meaning “Holy Grail,” lives up to its name vintage after vintage. This Pinot shows an alluring perfume of dark cherry, wild strawberry and rose petals, with layers of savoury earth, spice and subtle oak. The palate is silky yet structured, brimming with energy and fine tannins that promise graceful evolution in bottle.
Pairing: Roast duck, mushroom risotto or charcuterie will make this Pinot sing.
Cellaring: Beautiful on release but will reward careful cellaring for 8–12 years.
Why We Love It:
Nick Farr’s touch in the vineyard and winery is masterful — dry-grown vines, whole bunches, wild ferments, and minimal handling result in a Pinot that speaks honestly of its site. Sangreal is the purest expression of the Farr family’s quest to craft Australia’s greatest Pinot Noir.
Boccaccio Cellars offers real time shipping rates at checkout. These are heavily subsidised rates directly from Australia Post and will vary depending on your postcode.
Unfortunately, due to the ever increasing costs of postage we are unable to offer free shipping any longer. Postal increases have seen the average box of wine range from $30-$60, which can represent up to 500% of the cost of the average bottle of wine.
Your postal costs are calculated on the following factors:
- Where in Australia you are shipping to (Where rural postcodes obviously attract a higher charge)
- What in Australia you are shipping (Beer and water for example, are calculated in real time without any additional subsidy. This is because the margins for these products are minimal). Dry goods attract a discounted flat fee of $12 per carton (Calculated by gross weight).
Pickups on all items are encouraged.
