Description
"This is a beautifully crafted wine, fruit-focused and finely detailed. Nothing is overdone, allowing for a graceful flow of lemon, starfruit and white peach flavours. Oak maturation has imparted subtle detail and nuance, resulting in a seamless palate that retains the essence of the site. A light chill between 11–13°C will showcase the wine at its best. 95pts"(Toni Paterson, The Halliday Wine Companion).
For John Lehmann, writing in The Australian, "The dictionary definition of elegant might look something like this – a refined nose of honey, lemon posset, flint and almond is a wonderful segue into a palate of amazing complexity. Expect lemon curd, grapefruit pith, oak spice and clove, all of it delicate and well balanced from the acid."
5 Red Star rated Leogate Estate was established in 2009 by Bill and Vicki Widin. Their vines are much older – the Widins are proud owners of the original Brokenback Vineyard established by the legendary Len Evans of Rothbury Estate fame over 40 years ago.
