| Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\nVibrant and energetic nose with kiwi fruit, lime, fresh fig and dragonfruit. There is a subtle saline nuance combined with heightened floral notes lemon myrtle, jasmine and nettle. Lively and full of spark on the palate, lemon sherbet, and lime zest cohesively align. Gentle layers on the mid palate provides delicate creaminess, then defined with laced acidity from front to back.\r\nThe Siblings label celebrates family lineage and the three generations now leaving their footprints on Leeuwin Estate. They all share a place amongst the great wines of Australia, receiving much international acclaim and attention.\r\nWine Enthusiast 91 Points\r\n\r\nAbout Leeuwin Estate Winery\r\nFamily owned, Leeuwin Estate, one of the five founding wineries of the now famous Margaret River district of Western Australia, is under the direction of two generations who work with a team of highly skilled winemakers to consistently produce wines ranking alongside the world\u2019s finest. In 1972, legendary Napa Valley winemaker, Robert Mondavi, identified the future site of the Leeuwin vineyard as being ideal for the production of premium wine and provided early mentorship to Denis and Tricia Horgan in the transformation of their cattle farm into Leeuwin Estate. Enjoying its first commercial vintage in 1979, Leeuwin was thrust into the international spotlight when Decanter Magazine gave its highest recommendation to the 1981 \u201cArt Series\u201d Chardonnay.\r\nThe international accolades have continued and Leeuwin now exports to 30 markets. The prestigious Langton\u2019s Classification of Australian wine includes Leeuwin Estate Art Series Chardonnay in the top \u201cExceptional\u201d category and amongst the iconic \u201cHeritage five\u201d celebrating Australia\u2019s most exceptional, ground-breaking wines, whilst Art Series Cabernet Sauvignon is classified as \u201cOutstanding\u201d.
