Experience the elegant harmony of Deep Valley Chardonnay 2022, an organic and vegan-friendly wine crafted from grapes grown on the estate at Granton. This wine offers a beautifully balanced profile, combining richness and freshness with a refined, rounded mouthfeel that reflects meticulous barrel aging and careful winemaking.
Key Information and Highlights:
- Region: Granton, Tasmania
- Variety: Chardonnay
- Vintage: 2022
- Alcohol Content: Approximately 13.0%
- Volume: 750ml Bottle
- Ingredients: Made from estate-grown Chardonnay grapes farmed organically and vegan-certified. The grapes are carefully pressed, and the juice undergoes fermentation entirely in 100% barriques—20% new oak and the rest in neutral barrels—to add complexity and subtle oak influence. The wine is matured on lees for 10 months with minimal batonage to preserve freshness and vibrancy. It undergoes full malolactic fermentation, contributing to its creamy texture, and is bottled unfined and vegan-friendly.
Critic Scores:
While specific scores may not yet be available for the 2022 vintage, the wine’s craftsmanship and balanced profile have been highly praised in early reviews. For detailed ratings, consult recent tastings or the winery’s official releases.
Producer Background:
Deep Valley Winery is dedicated to organic farming and sustainable practices, producing wines that showcase Tasmania’s cool-climate elegance. Their approach emphasizes minimal intervention, allowing the fruit’s purity and complexity to shine, with careful barrel aging enhancing texture and depth without overpowering the wine’s freshness.
Vintage Notes:
The 2022 vintage experienced a balanced growing season with ideal conditions for ripening—cool nights and warm days—resulting in vibrant acidity and concentrated fruit flavours. The extended lees contact and barrel maturation contributed to a complex yet fresh profile, making this vintage a standout.
Vineyard & Winemaking Notes:
Grapes are hand-harvested from the property at Granton. After pressing, the juice ferments in a combination of new and neutral French oak barrels, allowing for subtle oak influence and added complexity. Full malolactic fermentation softens the acidity and adds creaminess, while minimal batonage preserves freshness. The wine spends 10 months on lees, enhancing its texture and depth, and is bottled unfined and vegan-friendly to maintain purity and natural expression.
Flavour Profile:
- Appearance: Bright straw gold with a clear, luminous glow.
- Nose: Rich and inviting, with aromas of lemon peel, grape pith, quince, toasted bread, and flint, evoking a sense of depth and sophistication.
- Palate: Medium-bodied with a vibrant, precise acidity and a round, creamy mouthfeel. Flavours of citrus, stone fruit, and hints of toast and minerality extend into a long, balanced finish. The wine’s structure and complexity make it both accessible now and capable of aging up to five years.
Food Pairings:
Deep Valley Chardonnay 2022 pairs beautifully with:
- Shellfish: Fresh oysters, scallops, or prawns—either raw or lightly cooked.
- Poultry: Roast chicken or turkey with lemon and herbs.
- Vegetarian Dishes: Grilled vegetables, creamy mushroom risotto, or soft cheeses.
Enjoy this elegant Tasmanian Chardonnay to experience its balance of richness, freshness, and subtle oak—an ideal choice for those seeking a refined, sustainable wine with excellent cellaring potential.
