2024 Howard Park Flint Rock Riesling
$30.00
The name “Flint Rock” epitomises the fine mineral structure and savoury elegance of wines grown in the wildly remote and awesomely beautiful Great Southern region of Western Australia. Our regional selection draws upon the varietal heroes of the 3 primary sub-regions; Mount Barker, Porongurup and Frankland River to craft wines with regional typicity and character.
Riesling is a true hero of the Great Southern – demanding, sensitive yet tough enough to thrive in the vagaries of this cool, dry climate. Wines crafted from Riesling are exceptionally revealing and critical of the environment in which they grow and the human interactions engaged to create them.

TASTING NOTE
Vintage
A captivating straw-green hue in the glass, this wine exudes a powdery citrus blossom perfume, intertwining with hints of nashi pear and freshly squeezed lemons. Lifted green apple, bitter orange and wet stone aromas merge to create an intriguing and zippy bouquet. The palate delivers a vibrant and enlivening experience, showing pronounced notes of finger lime zest and gooseberry, complemented by subtle flavours of cold green tea, chalk and honeydew melon. Refreshing, racy and tightly wound, this intricate combination of elements results in a well-balanced, lively wine that is sure entice Riesling lovers to drink now or cellar for up to 7 years. The wine’s bright acidity and vibrancy make it an excellent choice to pair with fresh air or a seafood lunch.
