Established in 1986, Howard Park Margaret River is one of Western Australia's leading family owned and operated wineries. Howard Park produces wines of international standing that are noted for their rare balance of elegance and power showing a consistency of style and quality is the hallmark of enduring great wines.
Howard Park's newest winery is located just outside the small town of Cowaramup; the birthplace 35 years ago of what's now the Margaret River Wine Region.
Named after the Owner of Howard Park Wines father, Leston Burch the ‘Leston Vineyard' is the vine-producing property and home of Howard Park Wines in Margaret River.
When purchased by Jeff and Amy Burch in 1988, the undulating partly cleared land was an attractive but run-down sheep farm.
With an outlook to maintain the aesthetics of the natural environment, vineyard development began in 1995. The vision to create a showpiece vineyard incorporating best viticultural practices is now a reality with the first planting of vines occurring in 1996.
The vineyard currently consists of about 157 acres of vines includ Shiraz, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Chardonnay, Cabernet Franc, Petit Verdot and Carnillion varieties.
The region is perhaps best known for its cabernet sauvignon and cabernet blends.
