Leeuwin Estate is not only a star winery of Margaret River but has also firmly established itself as one of Australia's most iconic wineries. Leeuwin's 'Art Series' wines represents their finest and most ageworthy wines from each vintage. They are identified with paintings commissioned from leading contemporary Australian artists.
The 2023 Leeuwin Estate Art Series Sauvignon Blanc is another terrific example of Margaret River Sauvignon Blanc, offering an abundance of limes, lemons and gooseberries on the nose. Finely tuned, textured and layered, the palate has a bright fruit spectrum centred on quince, lemon and lime. There is gentle weight through the mid-palate, creating dimension with a structural yet seamless acid spine. A top class Margaret River white wine that is ideal complement to white meat and seafood dishes.
"93 Points. Pink grapefruit, gooseberry, a little spicy and floral, aniseed and tomato leaf. It’s flavoursome with a light powdery chalky texture, fresh plum and gooseberry, a kiss of spiced oak, and appropriate varietal green bits. Finish is good too. Balanced. Altogether pleasing. Tasted: Dec23 13% alc. $33 Screwcap Drink: 2023 - 2027+"- Gary Walsh, The Wine Front.
