Winner /"DARK HORSE OF THE YEAR AWARD WINNER Owner Nic Peterkin is the grandson of the late Diana Cullen (Cullen Wines) and the son of Mike Peterkin (Pierro). After graduating from the University of Adelaide with a master's degree in oenology and travelling the world as a Flying Winemaker, he came back to roost in Margaret River with the ambition of making wines that are a little bit different, but also within the bounds of conventional oenological science."

Tasting Notes
WINNER- HALLIDAY WINE COMPANION DARK HORSE OF THE YEAR
The guys at L.A.S. Vino were very excited to get their hands on fruit from an organic vineyard in Metricup for their Chardonnay, and you shoujld be very exicted to drink this gorgeous wine.
The fruit was given the rockstar treatment before fermenting in barrel, where it underwent full malolactic fermentation; expect creamy, buttery notes, but not overdone. Citrus and stone fruit notes are on display here, with lees ageing adding lots of texture, while the high acidity is fresh and mouth-watering.
Drink it by itself or pair it with a broad range of foods – either way, you're in for a real treat.
