92/100 with the following review:
This is elegant and balanced, yet broad and rich at the same time. Aromas are of yellow orchard fruit, melon, apricot, vanilla, white flowers, butterscotch, toasty brioche, almond, nutmeg, cream, lemon zest, and minerals. Lemon, tangerine, and fresh cream are upfront on the palate, giving way to a long, lovely finish of melon, white flowers, and minerals. The mouthfeel is creamy, full, and rich, but the acidity keeps things fresh.

This wine is sourced from Margaret River - a cool, isolated pocket in Western Australia. There is a cape in MR called Cape Leeuwin. I am going to go out on a limb and say this winery is located on or nearby.
Leeuwin Estate's portfolio is small and rather quality driven. It manages tremendous richness without a trace of flabbiness - refreshing and fruity.
The colour is a pretty and deep lemon.
Aromas of lemon juice and essential oil, seashell, pineapple, yellow mango, guava, and buttered pastry.
Flavours of pecans, lemon and lime, banana chips, pineapple, honey, mango, and cara orange. Loads of fresh acidity keep this wine alive.
Probably loads of age ability on this Chard. It has the guts (acidity, balance, and minerality) to carry it. A wonderful pairing for well prepared abalone - something as grande and as impressive as itself.

Here's a totally delicious Chard from Margaret River W Australia, with a rich nose showing tropical ripe pineapple, vanilla and buttery notes. The dry, full-bodied palate gives lemon meringue pie, coconut and buttered toast, nicely integrated with just-right acidity and an elegant finish.

Light gold and clean. An aromatic nose of lemon, pears, toasted hazelnuts and just a touch of melon and floral notes. Elegant acidity and a luscious mouthfeel. Flavours of white peach, pineapple and citrus accents. A long and sumptuous finish. 100% new French oak for 11 months gives a bold but balanced oak influence to the great fruit chosen for this Art Series Chardonnay.
I could drink this all by itself and be in heaven but it would be fabulous matched to Cornish hen with a creamy wild mushroom and truffle sauce and wild rice.
