About this product
Dry, Full Bodied style of ChardonnayMargaret River, AustraliaThe 2015 Reserve Chardonnay has become one of the most sought after wines from Deep Woods Estate. Despite huge acclaim for previous vintages, the Chief Winemaker firmly believes that this is the best vintage to date. A steady harvest allowed considered picking decisions leading to wines of considerable finesse and natural acid balance but with unmistakable Margaret River power. The fruit was hand-picked and then chilled to maintain pristine condition. A minimalist approach in the winery included whole-bunch pressing, wild fermentation and sparing lees stirring in a mixture of new and seasoned French oak.

Full bodied white wines have a noticeably textural mouthfeel with good palate weight and full flavours.
Dry wines have no trace of sweetness at all.

Crikey. Everything here is all just so. It''s ripe, but not too ripe. Fresh, but not overly acidic. Smoky and modern, though the fruit isn''t smothered. It has an almond and cashew richness, but retains purity of fruit. Flavours? White peach, barely ripe pineapple, ruby red grapefruit, spice and sweet lime, with a touch of nougat. From sip to swallow, it forms an unbroken line of Chardonnay pleasure. Texture is gently chalky. The finish has length, crunch and comes in high definition. You''d be mad not to.
