Leeuwin Estate

Art Series Margaret River Chardonnay 2019

9.5

Pale lemon in colour - crystal clear. Probably drinking this a little young even at 7 years of age. Initial funky notes amongst the nutty notes. At 7 years the oak is assimilating with the peach. Great intensity as you come to expect from the Art Series. At least another 5 plus years in the cellar would not be a problem. — 11 days ago

@Kapyrick Wine My first of 3. Will be interesting to see how the remaining 2 bottles develop over the next few years.

They will be fantastic. The true test will be your tolerance for aged chardonnay. Leeuwin is a great producer, and the Art Series wines are fantastic. I have only enjoyed at a 10 year max, because I was worried they would go bad, but they would have been good longer at my tolerance . Enjoy!!!!!!!!

@Kapyrick Wine I have been drinking this Cuvée for many years now and we often have tastings to judge the best Australian Chardonnay. Giaconda and Bindi Quartz block are also in the mix. A few months ago I had my last 2013 Art Series and it was stellar.

Beautiful! 150 Day Dry Aged Ribeye from Brunson Meats! Doesn’t get much better! I’d stand this St Emilion against any Bordeaux I own! — 19 days ago

Intoxicating nose. Tres Bordeaux, complex, high bore, intriguing. On the palate, this is youthful, red fruited, tart and fresh.
Drinking lovely at the moment. Still has some future. — 8 days ago

Yes! Brilliant, even if early it’s long life. Such as a nice expression of chardonnay that was placed in our lives for food ,.,. Oysters for me this time. — 18 days ago

2013 vintage. Medium body. Spicy oak. Some mineral qualities. Drinking nicely now as a unified effort with all the components pulling the rope in the same direction. 11.2.26. — 12 days ago

9.2

Aromas of fresh orchard fruit and ripe stone fruit, with pear and white peach at the forefront. Subtle ritual fruits as well. The palate shows more stone fruit richness with vanilla and hint of pie crust and seashell. Good acidic backbone. Clean lingering finish.

This is delicious and so easy to drink, but also quite sophisticated. — a month ago
