2020 Chardonnay, Margaret River, Western Australia. This extraordinary Chardonnay variety is probably the finest white wine currently produced in Australia. From the renowned Leeuwin Estate in Margaret River, a pioneer of the region, this wine represents the winery's flagship. Purchased in 1969 by Denis Horgan, a Perth businessman, the estate only revealed its potential three years later thanks to a visit from the famous winemaker Robert Mondavi. Thanks to an exceptional microclimate and low yields, Leeuwin has become one of the best Australian wineries. The grapes for this wine come from Block 20 vineyard, planted over 40 years ago and farmed sustainably. After harvest, the grapes are vinified in French oak barrels with regular bâtonnage to give the wine structure, creaminess and complexity. After 11 months of barrel aging, the different lots are blended, aged and bottled. The result is an incredibly pure and concentrated wine, with aromas of lemon, pear and lime followed by notes of cardamom, chamomile and cinnamon. On the palate, it has a full body, rounded structure and a long finish with hints of toasted hazelnuts and oyster shell. Its bold character makes it perfect to pair with creamy fish-based dishes, chicken or pasta, as well as a selection of cheeses.

Every product available on the marketplace is listed and sold by a partner seller indicated on the product page. The platform acts as a metasearch/marketplace: it facilitates discovery and checkout, but the sale is carried out by the seller, who becomes the party responsible for the transaction.
Shipping is handled directly by the seller partner. The package leaves the seller's warehouse, or its logistics network, and is handed over to the carrier. This model enables more efficient deliveries and ensures that order management is handled by those who actually have the product available.
On the product page you will find ingredients, allergens and nutritional information according to the data provided by the seller or manufacturer, i.e. the official label. If you have allergies or intolerances, we recommend that you carefully check the product page before purchasing and contact the seller with any specific questions.
