Leeuwin Estate Art Series Chardonnay 2014
Piercingly flavoured and dramatically concentrated this long taut and linear chardonnay marries pristine translucent flavours of ruby grapefruit peach and lime juice with faintly smoky cashewvanilla oak and nuances of ginger and cloves Underpinned by a fine dustiness its restraint and acid structure will ensure it develops slowly as its winemakers take the Art Series Chardonnay into a more austere and less opulent style perhaps theres sufficient intensity and intensity of fruit to have received just a shade more winemaking influence

Winery
Leeuwin Estate
One of the founding vineyards of the Margaret River wine region, and home to the largest privately owned Karri forest on earth, Leeuwin Estate is a signature winery with a definitive wine -Ę its Art Series Chardonnay. Since its first vintage in 1980 this label has hardly missed a beat, and could actually be the world's most consistent benchmark wine. The 2012 vintage continues with an even more finely honed and elegant expression than the 2011 release. Made from mature vineyards, the Art Series reds are steadily gaining the depth of genuinely ripe fruit and consistency the Horgan family have been seeking. The current releases of Sauvignon Blanc and the Siblings white blend are delightfully fresh and vibrant.
