2015 Howard Park Scotsdale Shiraz, Great Southern

There is a beautiful charm, and energy, to this wine. The palate is beautifully medium-bodied with vibrancy and freshness. Intense red plums and dark cherry flavours with gentle peppery spice. The tannins are fine and integrated. It will age with grace 19 SEP 2017 Drink 2017–2023

95 points Toni Patterson MW The Real Review

The purple-crimson colour is excellent, the wine living up to that promise; the spicy/peppery bouquet leads into a medium to full-bodied palate, black fruits, licorice and pepper all on display. It is the structure of the tannins that clinch the deal: they are rounded and sewn into the fabric of the wine. This and the Leston are very different, but of equal quality.
