HowardPark Margaret River Chardonnay WesternAustralia Description: Since inception in 1986, HowardPark's reputation of crafting balanced and elegant wines with uncompromising commitment and much pride and passion, has become internationally recognised. At this winery the philosophy is a premium wine can only come from excellent fruit and it is this reason that HowardPark's locations, in the heart of the GreatSouthern and Margaret River, were chosen. The sourcing of this fruit from specific vineyards, and in many cases specific blocks on the vineyard, is the single most important factor in the production of the HowardPark Wines. This Chardonnay combines cool-climate flavours with texture and complexity in a wine that is both delicate and subtle. The particularly careful attention paid to the wine has resulted in a brilliant, almost steely, pale straw appearance. The nose is an enticing combination of fine floral citrus with hints of peach. These aromas are supported by a richer savoury note from lees stirring, with hints of smoky, nutty barrel ferment characters providing background complexity. The wine has a seamless, refined palate with initial citrus and stone fruit flavours followed by a savoury, textural mid-palate and finishing with fine minerally grapefruit acidity and excellent French oak.

Madfish Sauvignon Semillon WesternAustralia Description: Tasting Note Cool, crisp white with intense grassy, gooseberry and lime character on both the nose and palate. Long, concentrated and dry, the citrussy acidity runs on and on. A blend of 58% Sauvignon Blanc and 42% Semillon from top sites in WesternAustralia. Full of thirst-quenching lemon and lime fruit that races across the palate, this is a textbook example of cool climate New World winemaking. The balance between the purity of fruit and the crisp, acidic structure is excellent. A bit about MadFish The winery takes its name from Madfish Bay which can found near Denmark in WesternAustralia’s GreatSouthern and where, apparently, fish go loco. Designed to reflect WA’s laid-back lifestyle, both the packaging and the juice are right on the money. As you’d expect from wines made by HowardPark’s crack winemaking team, they are classically cool-climate in style with a real vibrancy of fruit and an abundance of cheeky charm. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £57.70
