This sophisticated Chardonnay has pretty aromatics, and a driven, crystalline palate. It's fragrant and energetic, yet neatly pack around a svelte line of acidity. The fellas at Deep Down always make wines that beautifully relect the vintage, and this is a great expression of a cooler year in 2025. The fruit come from the certified organic Wrekin Vineyard, in Marlborough’s Southern Valleys. It’s fermented and aged in 900 litre French oak puncheons. 

We’ve fallen deep for Deep Down wines. The partnership of Clive Dougall and Peter Lorimer is the culmination of years of passion and experience. We first crossed paths with Peter in the late 2000’s in London, and followed his career representing great Kiwi producers around the globe. Meanwhile, Clive was winemaker at Seresin for 12 years, leading Marlborough’s way in organic and biodynamic production. The outcome of their partnership? Stylish, organic expressions of great Marlborough vineyards. The fellas show they seriously understand the idea of drinkability, without forgoing interest or detail.
