About this Wine

We had a mild spring with adequate soil moisture, resulting in a slightly later season. A moderate summer led to ideal ripening conditions with little pressure in the vineyard and a lack of any major rain events during the ripening season. Consistently warm days and cool evenings made for great retention of acid within the grapes, whilst achieving optimal fruit expression.

The Deep Woods Estate Cabernet Franc is an expressive blend of two mature vineyards in the Yallingup hills region of Margaret River that captures and frames the beauty of this wonderful varietal. The fruit was hand-picked and sorted, gently macerated for 10 days before maturation for 9 months in seasoned French oak.

The wine is deep ruby in colour. The nose displays layers of red cherries, raspberry seed and wild herbs while showcasing its unique freshness and youth.At once powerful yet contained with the varieties beautifully matched. On the palate, it is elegant and detailed. Redcurrant, black cherry and subtle spice are all harmonious with subtle oak to ensure full varietal expression is enjoyed.

This wine may be enjoyed on release but will find further complexity three to five years from vintage. – Deep Woods

Margaret River Wine

In the southwest of Western Australia, the Margaret River wine region is unique in that it is the most maritime-influenced region in all of Australia. The cool Indian ocean breezes come in through the summer to keep the temperatures around the vines steady resulting in an unusually even accumulation of warmth in the growing season. It is also quite dry as interestingly less than 20% of the annual rainfall occurs as the grapes are growing. The region’s climatic factors have been compared to what Bordeaux would be like in a dry season. While the region’s total production is relatively small (3% of Australia’s total wine production), it is responsible for 20% of our premium wine market.

Cabernet Sauvignon, Shiraz as well as Bordeaux blends are all very popular red wine options in the region.

For whites, refreshing blends of Sauvignon Blanc and Semillon as well as complex, age worthy Chardonnays are the specialties.
