Press Coverage:
"Focused ripe tropical fruit nose: clean, fruity with nice toastiness, some herbs and the fruit to the fore. The palate is complex and rich with spicy toastiness, some herbal notes and high acidity keeping things fresh (no malolactic here). Complex and long – a sophisticated style."
Jamie Goode, Wine Anorak - 0000-00-00
Producer Information:
Howard Park is delighted to introduce a new winemaker for 2007, ex-Yalumba, Plantagenet and Millbrook star Tony Davis. With considerable experience in WA, and especially the Great Southern, Tony is an ideal choice to build on HP's success in recent years with Robert Parker being the latest to 'discover' the estate with a series of 90+ scores released in October. The wines have a purity of flavour and elegant structure that is difficult to achieve in Australia's warm climate and the style is wonderfully summed up by The Times' Jane Macquitty who described the 2005 Riesling as spiked with lime-zest and possessing "a lovely, long, tingling finish."
