Celebrating the combination of fine wine, food and art, Leeuwin Estate features an award winning restaurant, cellar door and art gallery. The Estate is renowned for staging spectacular events and welcoming visitors from around the world.
Family owned, Leeuwin Estate, one of the five founding wineries of the now famous Margaret River district of Western Australia, is under the stewardship of three generations who work with a team of highly skilled winemakers to consistently produce wines ranking alongside the world’s finest.
In 1972, legendary Napa Valley winemaker, Robert Mondavi, identified the future site of the Leeuwin vineyard as being ideal for the production of premium wine and provided early mentorship to Denis and Tricia Horgan in the transformation of their cattle farm into Leeuwin Estate. Enjoying its first commercial vintage in 1979, Leeuwin was thrust into the international spotlight when Decanter Magazine gave its highest recommendation to the 1981 “Art Series” Chardonnay. The international accolades have continued and Leeuwin now exports to 30 markets.
The Leeuwin Restaurant maintains the food philosophy of combining exceptional seasonal West Australian produce, focusing on flavour, texture and aromas, with current and museum release Leeuwin Estate wines. With sweeping verandahs, the restaurant overlooks a meadow surrounded by a forest of majestic karri trees.
The Leeuwin “Wine Room”, is available for private dining group bookings.
Leeuwin first developed an association with the arts fraternity when launching the famous “Art Series” wine labels. The collection now comprises over 150 paintings and artworks from artists including John Olsen, Arthur Boyd, Sir Sidney Nolan, Lloyd Rees, Albert Tucker, Fred Williams, Robert Juniper, Clifton Pugh and Imants Tillers, with most on display in the Leeuwin Estate Art Gallery.

Beautiful setting. Service was superb. Very well trained staff. Wines were excellent. Food good. My starter of scallop crudo missed the mark (bland and missing the crab) but main of snapper (pictured) was top notch. Cheese dish to finish was quite unique.

Absolutely do a tasting and lunch here. Cameron was amazing, so friendly and knowledgeable about the wines. This man loves his job! Dining on the patio was a pleasure and the food was great

Visited Leeuwin Estate from Melbourne with my partner for tastings and lunch on a beautiful mid – February Monday. Weather was stunning matching the aesthetic of the estate.
Wine Tasting:
Despite being a walk-in, we were greeted with open arms and availability and were treated to a very comprehensive and knowledgeable tasting. The sommelier Chenae provided exceptional cellar door service. She had extensive knowledge, friendly demeanour and provided tailored recommendations appropriately. She advised we sample lunch with paired wines that were excluded from the tasting to experience the full breadth of range at Leeuwin. The wine was so good we returned for a second tasting of the Museum wines post lunch.
Paired Seasonal Lunch:
We had the 6 course seasonal lunch menu with paired wines. All of the food and wine was exceptional and our waitress Marina provided both compliments and service of the highest quality.
Started with sourdough with cultured butter and a Chef’s canape which was inhaled thus didn’t get a chance to take a photo.
First course was a Scallop Crudo which was delicate and light paired with a Riesling.
Second course was Stracchino paired with a Sauvignon Blanc.
Third course was Fish paired with a Chardonnay.
Fourth course was Margaret River wagyu with was tender and buttery paired with a Cabernet Sauvignon.
Fifth course was a dramatic blueberry dish.
Sixth course was the Cambray reserve cheddar with cornbread and spiced raisin. An interesting interpretation of a cheeseboard which was light and delightful to the senses.
Gallery:
Explored the gallery to digest the delicious lunch and tastings.
The collection featured landscape works of Australian Art Modernists including Albert Tucker and Arthur Boyd.
Leeuwin also have a service that ships your wine home which is handy for interstate visitors. Naturally we bought a case to take advantage.
A wonderful sensory experience that we would highly recommend to those visiting the Margaret River region

If you are traveling wineries around Margaret river, it is a must visit one... Normally in the region, tasting is 10aud but after tasting if you buy a bottle, they dont charge you for a tasting. But here at Leeuwin Estate it is a bit different and tricky... Tasting menu has 3 section. Entry level wines are free to taste, art series are 10 aud but they dont refund it even you buy a bottle from the series and last icon wines, they are 10 aud to taste each, but they refund it if you buy a bottle which is around 100 aud. To be honest noone visit here for entry wines, so you end up paying 20 aud just for tasting... Be aware of that :) Apart from this, the estate is huge and you should spend couple of hours at least to enjoy.... Cheers
