2015LeeuwinEstateArtSeriesChardonnay

Sans Brilliant pale straw colour with a distinctive glimmer of green around the edges and a watery hue. Intense white peach, ripe nectarine and dried honey aromas meld into elements of cashew, citrus, light biscuity nougat and hints of struck match stick. Showing off wonderful finesse and class yet rich and concentrated at the same time, the palate is engulfed with ripe whites peaches, subtle grapefruit, dried honey and nectarine. Creamy yet fresh in its textural feel it combines complexing elements of cashew, citrusy nougat and subtle infusions of gun flint with the fruit. Excellent acid structure, superb power and a long driving finish that persists for minutes on the aftertaste. It’s easy to see why this wine remains in the top echelon of Australian Chardonnay.Drink over the next 6-8 years.Alc. 14%
