Poised Langhorne Creek Cab from cricket legend Ricky Ponting & award-winning Ben Riggs.
Of the Gold-winning 2023 vintage Sam Kim Wine Orbit said: "It's delightfully lifted on the nose, showing blackcurrant, olive, fennel, and toasted almond notes, leading to a succulent palate offering good weight and persistence. Beautifully structured by supple texture and fine-grained tannins, finishing long and robust. 92pts"
“Love and wine can be a potent combination - just ask champion cricketer Ricky Ponting.” John Lehmann, The Australian. On Ricky’s first date with his future wife, Rianna, he bought a bottle of Leeuwin Estate’s Art series Chardonnay, they’ve now not only been married for 22 years but have set up a very serious wine business, working with winemaking veteran Ben Riggs and wine marketer David Krenich. And as Ricky says, the husband and wife “are in on every detail”. It’s no gimmick, the wine is seriously good. As Ben says: “I will never make anything less than a high-quality wine with the Ponting name on it – that’s a promise.”
This fine Langhorne Creek Cabernet Sauvignon won five Golds and 92pts on debut, and has won Gold in virtually all international shows it's been entered in. "It hasn't missed out yet" says Ricky Ponting.
