Howard Park Shiraz Leston 2015

Generous aromas of black plums provide a luscious richness, complimented by the inviting mocha and cocoa notes of French oak. Hints of ginger, anise and pepper add elegance and spice. Round in texture, the palate’s soft red berry fruits and plush mouthfeel is refreshed by chewy, vibrant tannins.

The wine was blended from a selection of the best batches of Shiraz grown on our Leston vineyard, specifically block 17 & 4, which is located in the Wilyabrup sub-region of Margaret River. The soils in this vineyard are shallow lateritic gravels over sandy, clay loam.

This is an aromatic, pretty Shiraz from Margaret River. Dive into ripe strawberry, rhubarb, pepper, toasty spice and a little meatiness on the nose. Then wade in juicy fruit and a silky smooth texture on the medium-bodied palate which finishes on a grip of savory tannins.
