Reviewed by Dr. Nicola Chandler, a 9 year old bottle of this wonderful wine that still has many years left in it.

Mark, how would this wine compare to say a Leeuwin?

Hi Bob,

Personally I rank it second, and often on par:

Leeuwin Art series
Pierro
Cullen
Voyager Estate

I love Western Australian Chardonnays.. they age well, are very underrated and just great value.

The problem is they are not that readily available in the USA. I'm in the business and there is a paucity of wines from Western Australia in general.

Thats a shame.. they are so different to the other styles typically associated with Australia now too.
