Leeuwin Estate Art Series Riesling 2024

Leeuwin Estate is a foundational pillar in Margaret River, is celebrated for their world-class wines. Founded by Denis and Tricia Horgan, the estate was guided by Napa Valley's the esteemed Robert Mondavi, who recognised its potential for premium wine production. With his mentorship, the Horgans transformed their humble cattle farm into a renowned vineyard. Planting began in 1974, and by 1979, Leeuwin Estate’s wines gained international acclaim almost immediately.

The 1981 “Art Series” Chardonnay earned high praise from Decanter Magazine, marking Leeuwin Estate’s entry onto the global stage. Today, under the care of three generations of the founding family, the estate continues to produce exceptional, site-expressive wines that are featured in top restaurants and wine merchants across 30 markets.

On the 2024 vintage of Leeuwin Estate Art Series Riesling the nose is perfumed and heightened with citrus blossom meeting galangal and Kaffir lime leaf. Primary fruit of lime, lemon pith and Granny Smith apple lead to subtle flinty notes combing with earth driven spices. A delicate and elegant wine, with a finely tuned and tightly coiled palate featuring lemons and limes in abundance. An open mid-palate is balance with laced natural acidity, leading to a mineral chalk finish with impressive length.
