From its beginnings, Howard Park has made Riesling from the Great Southern wine region of Western Australia. Riesling is demanding, sensitive yet tough enough to thrive in the vagaries of this cool climate. Wines made of Riesling grapes are exceptionally revealing and critical of the environment in which they grow and the human interactions engaged to create them.

Magnums of Riesling have exceptional capacity for long term ageing.

Intensely perfumed with a bouquet of orange blossoms, jasmine, and lavender. The fruit is on the riper end of the spectrum leaning away from lime in favour of apricot, mandarin, and white peach. Intertwined between stone fruit and citrus lies wisps of talc, wet quartz, and ginger spice. The acidity washes over the palate causing a mouth-watering sensation reminiscent of biting into a crispy granny smith apple. Towards the middle of the palate the richer fruits unveil themselves. Rockmelon, Meyer lemon, and white nectarine culminate in a beguiling blend with classic Riesling acidity underpinning it all
