Description

Art Series is the pinnacle of Leeuwin Estates Margaret River red wines, classic Cabernet Sauvignon that reminds me of Latour stylistically. The gorgeously deep, character laden palate is due to perfect Cabernet terroir, yet another great Margaret River vintage, superb concentration and clearly best French oak. Similar quality Cabernet from Bordeaux would wear a frightfully more expensive price tag. 5-years old on release... its nicely approachable but could age comfortably through 2035 if properly stored. The 2015 vintage artwork was commissioned with Helen Eager, and entitled 'Canal Street'

Smells

Fragrant lavender, black currant, cherry, black plum, graphite, cedar, clove and tobacco... classically Cabernet.

Tastes

A parade of dark fruits, subtle cassis, savoury herbs/spices, fine cedar and underlying graphite and tobacco complexities grow in intensity as this richly fruited and textured Cabernet transverse your palate in a journey of unbridled delight. A harmonious and complex amalgam of fruit, oak, tannin and acid that work seamlessly to finish with power, sophistication and refinement. Enjoy now through 2034 with a herb crusted rack of lamb.
