More Information

2022 provided a fantastic vintage at Leeuwin Estate. Spring of 2021 was typically wet and windy. September and October’s temperatures were milder than usual, delaying shoot growth and flowering dates. Sunny conditions in early-mid November produced a surge in vine growth and a rapid period of vine flowering. Conditions were warm throughout January and February, with the welcome arrival of the sea breeze a daily constant.

There was a substantial showing of Marri blossom around the vineyard and on the capes, so local birds showed little interest in the ripening grapes. Harvest commenced on February 4 with Pinot Noir, followed by the harvest of all whites by March 15.

 

TASTING NOTES
Concentrated and intense, the nose is surrounded by a fruit core of nashi pear, finger limes and Lisbon lemon. Delicate complex layers of nougat, brioche, chamomile, galangal, sesame praline and macadamia can be unearthed within. Heightened notes of wattle blossom, jasmine and lime flowers breathe energy and elevation.


The palate is detailed and ethereal. Pear greets nectarine, white peach and lemon curd. Woven and harmonious, it unfolds to a graphite and mineral thread, with a touch of sherbet, aniseed and cardamom. Gentle textures open through the mid-palate with vibrant natural acidity, amidst a black tea, talc and chalk-like finish.
