Farrm Wine was created by Rex and Connie Farr, who practice organic/biodynamic farming methods. No chemicals have been used on the farm since 1985. They became the first certified organic and biodynamically farmed (1990) on Long Island. The vineyard was planted in 2005, with four varieties of Bordeaux grapes: 8.5 acres of Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Malbec, and Petite Verdot. The first wines were made from the 2012 harvest, and then only two bottles were made: Farrm Reserve and Farrm Rosé. Our wines reflect the quintessential “terroir”, the taste of the North Fork of Long Island, NY Our production methods follow the principles of Rudolf Steiner. Biodynamics is the PHD of organics.

(Please see the diagram attached to the listing) From pruning to harvest, 220 days, 25 jobs, and a lot of luck. We hope to harvest roughly 3 tons an acre. Hand-picked at their peak of ripeness, the grapes are then taken to our winemaker, where the process of de-stemming, maceration, fermenting, and eventually bottling will take place. Every bottle of wine has a story. The 2022 Vintages are the currently available wines. FARRM WINE RESERVE 2022 A masterpiece of complexity and elegance, this full-bodied Reserve dazzles with a symphony of aromas—bittersweet chocolate, ripe plum, aromatic sage, delicate violets, and a whisper of black pepper.

Paired with a slow-simmered beef bourguignon, it becomes an experience of pure culinary seduction. Certified organic/biodynamic grown grapes.
