Leeuwin Estate, one of the founding wineries of Margaret River, Western Australia, was established in 1973 by Denis and Tricia Horgan, with early guidance from Robert Mondavi. Vines were first planted in 1975, and the inaugural vintage followed in 1979. The winery rose to international prominence after Decanter Magazine highly recommended its 1981 “Art Series” Chardonnay, cementing its reputation for world-class wines.

Now led by three generations of the founding family, Leeuwin Estate continues to produce highly regarded wines found in leading restaurants and wine merchants across more than 30 markets. With a strong focus on sustainable viticulture, the team is dedicated to expressing purity, precision, and site-driven character in every wine.

Leeuwin’s Art Series Chardonnay and Art Series Cabernet Sauvignon are included in wine auction house, Langton’s, prestigious classification. With point scores as high as 98/100, US Wine Spectator has included Leeuwin Art Series Chardonnays in the editor’s annual top 100 list on numerous occasions with the 2011 vintage ranked wine #5 in 2015. The Art Series Cabernet Sauvignon has been included in UK Decanter Magazine’s Top 50 wines of the year and as a US WINE & SPIRITS Top 100 wine.

Tasting Notes

"There’s always an anticipation when a new vintage arrives. This doesn’t disappoint – it’s archetypal Art Series: powerful, rich and layered with flavour from stone fruit, pink grapefruit and Meyer lemon to a touch of mandarin. The palate builds with creamy lees, oak spice and some phenolics – the oak is superbly integrated, and pure acidity leads this to a persistent finish. Impressive as always." 97 Points - Halliday Wine Companion, Jane Faulkner (2024)
