HOWARD PARK Location: Margaret River & Great Southern, Western Australia Established: 1986 Principals: Jeff, Amy, Natalie, David and Richard Burch (Owners and Family Members), and Janice McDonald (Chief Winemaker) Hectares: 153 KEY POINTS: 1. Howard Park Wines is Western Australia’s largest boutique family-owned winery. In 2009, Howard Park became the only Western Australia winery to join Australia’s First Families of Wine (AFFW), a collective of twelve multi-generational family-owned wine producers. 2. The climate in Margaret River is more influenced by the sea than any other wine region in Australia and studies on both soil and climate suggest a strong similarity to Bordeaux in France. 3. The Great Southern wine region is home to a cool Mediterranean climate with maritime influence and a variety of elevations and vineyard exposures yielding wines with elegance and finesse. 4. Certified by the Winemakers Federation of Australia’s EntWine initiative for environmentally conscious practices. The winemaking facilities are 100% water sufficient, using rainwater collected from the roof for both winery and irrigation needs.
