2008ToutPresByFarrPinotNoir

Sans Tout Pres (at close quarters) is the Farr’s 2.5 Ha close planted project. Clones 113, 114, 115, 667, 777 and MV6 are planted at a density of 8 000 vines/ ha (aproaching the density of great terroirs such as La Tache at 9 000 vines/ ha) on three different soil types.

Other Reviews..‘Grown on a “very close” planted anatomically distinguished vineyard’ is the verbose explanation on the back label, the other by Farr back labels contenting themselves with meeting boring legal requirements. Close planting doesn’t always come off, but it certainly did in ’08, producing an exceptionally long and intense wine.’Drink by 2020Alc 13.5%96 Points James Halliday – The Wine Companion
