WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Deep Woods Estate Reserve Chardonnay 2022 is produced from hand-picked, whole-bunch pressed Chardonnay grapes. Fermentation occurs in new and used French oak, utilizing wild yeasts. The wine then matures on lees for nine months in French oak. Fruit is sourced from central Wilyabup vineyards, with additional contributions from Wallcliffe and Karridale. The winemaking aims to capture the regional distinctiveness of Margaret River.
