2019 Howard Park Leston Shiraz
$40.00
The Howard Park Leston Shiraz was created from a selection of the best batches of Shiraz grown on our Leston vineyard (specifically, blocks 4 and 17) which is located in the Willyabrup subregion of Margaret River. The soils in this vineyard are shallow lateritic gravels over sandy, clay loam.
Small parcels are handpicked, and all batches are sorted to remove matter other than grapes, prior to fermentation. Fermentation occurs in open vat and closed stainless steel fermenters with diligent cap management to extract fine fruit tannin and strong varietal flavour.
Margaret River
TASTING NOTE
Vintage
Ruby in the glass with violet fraying towards the edges, the core of this wine is built around an abundance of dark fruits accompanied by hints of floral aromas and undertones of spice. Satsuma plum, blackberry, boysenberry, and dark cherry swirl with rosemary, mint, white pepper and fennel. The dark fruits found on the nose and palate transition to impressions of red berries on the lasting finish.
Food Match
Drink alongside merguez meatballs, smoked tomato paprika salsa and chargrilled sourdough.
Recommended Cellaring
Drink now or cellar for 7 to 10 years.
