2016 vintage. Nicely rounded and ripe, showing moderate oak influence. Tropical pineapple and mango, yellow apple, poached pear, honeyed almonds, nutmeg, chamomile, cream. Good streak of acidity keeps the palate fresh and lively.

Beautifully balanced oak and acid. Creamy vanilla notes. Stone and tropical fruit as well as citrus.

Very good Chardonnay. This is Leeuwins 2nd best after their famous Art Series. Good to see Leeuwin staying with their fruit forward style over the current lean struck match styles in vogue currently in Oz. Give it another 5 years but very good now. 2014 vintage.

Tasted the 2014 vintage. Nose is vanilla sugar, lemon curd, and French perfume. Palate was balanced/smooth. Flavors of lemon/lime, finishing with mineral, almond, and sesame seed.
