Howard Park is the premium brand of Burch Family Wines and boasts of a range of wines that are Five Red Star Rated in the James Halliday Wine Companion for over 17 years and consistently rated Excellent by the Langtons Classification of Australian wine. Howard Park is also a member of the Australia’s First Families of Wines, a small group of equally dedicated family wine companies with the aim to improve the image of Australian wine across the globe.
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 sub-regions; Mt Barker, Porongurup & Frankland River to make wines that showcase regional typicity.
A mix of clones from the estate Mount Barrow Vineyard at Mount Barker, wild-fermented in (mostly) used French oak, matured on lees for 9 months. This is all about length and texture, in stark style contrast to its Howard Park sibling, and will mature with effortless grace and intensity. Bargain++.
