Nose
This wine exhibits lush nectarine, grapefruit and white peach characters. A hint of warm vanilla spice from oak ageing frames the nose.
Palate
The palate is clean and lively with tremendous depth of ripe stone-fruit flavour nuanced by toasty almond-meal notes. Bright citrus acidity and orange peel providing length and vibrancy to the finish.
Harvest
The 2021 vintage featured a growing season with a warm, dry summer providing the perfect conditions for hallmark flavour intensity. Cool evenings ensured fruit retained natural acidity, producing wines that are expressive and beautifully balanced.
Winemaking
This wine was fermented in a combination of seasoned and new oak barrels, using only indigenous yeasts for a wild fermentation. With no fining or acid additions, this Chardonnay showcases Deep Woods’ dedication to site selection and pure varietal expression.
