      Producer. Producer. Producer... This is very good, and at its price point it can boast complexity, structure, power and detail.

      — Tom Kline, Wine Pilot, 94 Points

      This is as good as you'd hope and better than you'd expect... It has good fruit intensity, a rub of texture, sound-smoky length and strong all-around appeal.

      — Campbell Mattinson, The Wine Front, 93 Points

      There would be wineries lining up to have this as their pinnacle release... Fresh and bright, this has at least six to eight years of providing pleasure ahead of it.

      Leeuwin Estate

      Leeuwin Estate stands as one of the premier wineries in Margaret River, Australia, renowned for producing wines that rank alongside the finest in the world. The estate was established in 1973 when Denis and Tricia Horgan, inspired by the mentorship of Napa Valley’s legendary winemaker Robert Mondavi, transformed their cattle farm into a vineyard. The first commercial vintage was released in 1979, and Leeuwin quickly garnered global recognition when its Art Series Chardonnay was highly recommended by Decanter Magazine in 1981.

      Today, the estate is still owned and operated by the founding Horgan family, with three generations working alongside a dedicated team of viticulturists and winemakers. The focus remains on crafting site-expressive wines of exceptional quality, with a strong commitment to precision in every aspect of their production process. Leeuwin Estate’s signature Art Series wines—Chardonnay and Cabernet Sauvignon—are regarded as some of Australia’s finest, achieving both critical acclaim and the highest accolades in the wine world.
