點擊次數：11405

The 2005 Chardonnay “Prelude Vineyard” was 100% barrel-fermented and aged in 30% new oak without malolactic fermentation. Medium straw-colored, it offers a classy perfume of toast, mineral, anise, banana, mango, and pineapple. This is followed by a ripe but restrained Chardonnay with excellent balance, good depth, and serious flavor interest. Drink this complex wine over the next 3-4 years. Leeuwin Estate is one of the benchmark wineries of Western Australia. Both reds and whites exhibit cool climate character and European elegance.

Supple, graceful and elegant. An outpouring of lovely flavors on a polished, refined frame, offering quince-accented pineapple and passion fruit against spicy, creamy notes that linger on the finish.
