2024 Howard Park Flint Rock Chardonnay
$32.00
The name Flint Rock epitomizes the fine mineral structure and savoury elegance of wines grown in the wildly remote and awesomely beautiful Great Southern region of Western Australia. This Howard Park regional selection draws upon the varietal heroes of the three primary subregions; Mount Barker, Porongurup and Frankland River, to make wines that showcase regional typicity. This wine reveals fine acidity and minerality from the ancient soils found in Great Southern vineyards.

TASTING NOTE
Vintage
Straw-green/lemon in the glass with lifted floral aromas of honeysuckle, orange blossom and lemon myrtle. Lifted floral aromas of honeysuckle, orange blossom and lemon myrtle. Yellow peach, nectarine and green mango amalgamate to create an enticing and stone-fruit driven nose. A whiff of spice and a hint of vanilla pod alludes to time in seasoned oak barrels. Soft apple flesh, ripe lemon and red pear flavours flow over the palate, followed by a hint of orchard fruit crumble with custard that leads to a round mouthfeel with a linear zip of citrusy acidity.
Food Match
Enjoy with chicken liver parfait, pear, red wine gel and brioche.
