G'day
My last tasting of this was at a Lamonts chardonnay event in December 2025. My note at the time was:
Deep Woods Reserve Chardonnay 2023 (Margaret River). Pale lemon colour. Struck match on the nose, with peach, nectarine, fig, a little citrus and tropical fruits. The palate shows cedary oak with more stone fruits. There’s just enough supporting acid without being too noticeable, and there’s a little textural grip. Long finish and well balanced.
A few months on, and the colour has darkened slightly. The struck match is still evident from the start, with waves of stone fruits and tropical fruits on the nose, accompanied by some serious oak. There's some lemony citrus notes joining these flavours on the palate. Acid adds to the lemon sensation, and the oak provides some texture / mouthfeel. Long finish and an excellent wine.
Cheers
