Deep Woods Estate Chardonnay 2023

Like most of Deep Woods wines the variety is the star of the show. Here Chardonnay is embraced like a warm hug. It’s filled with yellow peach, fresh apricot and lemon balm. Jackfruit and papaya. It’s pulpy and fleshy on the palate with a foundation of cedar oak. Nutmeg, cinnamon and cultured butter. A Werther’s original cream candy deliciousness. Richly satisfying but perked up by fresh acidity. It’s a smart wine, almost smugly so, for the price it can be.  Drink now and will cellar for another 3 years. Drink with an excellent croque monsieur.
