Drink 2025–2038
The 2013 Art Series Cabernet Sauvignon is leafy and dark, with a resinous outlay of dark berry aromas. Licorice, anise, dark chocolate, hints of iodine and nori create the bouquet of the wine, and it directly translates to the palate. The Cabernet program at Leeuwin has evolved in what feels like leaps and bounds over the past decade or so, and even in the time between now (2025) and the 2013 vintage, I have observed an ever-increasing expression of detail and suppleness in the wines. Here, the tannins are intense and, while not quite chalky, are substantially profuse and yet very finely milled. Very good Cabernet here!
