Product Description
In the glass the nose is treated to poached rhubarb and red cherry aromas, with notes of mild potpourri, prosciutto, ripe strawberry and a very subtle hint of baking spice. The energetic, well integrated acid line that frames attractive young Pinot is well supported by a supple mouthfeel that delivers those persistent cherry and smoked strawberry flavours to all corners of the mouth and leaves lingering hints of savoury spice, and ferrous earth characters which will build increasing complexity in the wine as it evolves with bottle age.

Product details
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 and Frankland River to produce wines of regional typicity and character.
