Wow. This is a wonderful winery. Unlike many wineries in the area you don't need to take out a loan just to get a bottle. Prices were extremely reasonable and even better when you buy in 3 or 12. Giordano was amazing. A fully qualified sommelier with a hilarious sense of humour but also incredibly knowledgeable about the wines. Love this place and would return anytime.

Not only is this a beautiful winery with top class wines ... but here you will also find lovely, knowledgeable staff who have big hearts and top notch customer service. Our car broke down 5 minutes out from our planned visit. The Howard Park cellar door team could not have been more helpful . And.. bonus... I still got to purchase some amazing wine for Xmas celebrations... shame about the car... but that's another story

Easily the number 1 winery we have ever been to. The women here made our wine tasting experience the best we have ever had. Very knowledgeable, nothing was too much trouble and their sense of humour and personalities did the business proud! Their Jete Sparkling is the best sparkling we have ever had. Needless to say we left buying plenty from here.

The only maker in Margaret River who adopt traditional Champagne method for the sparkling wines. Also, very beautiful and modern cellar, sophisticated in both service and products. We liked many from the variety of wine lists and purchased a dozen!
NV Howard Park Brut was very fruity and has enough complexity. Sauvignon Blanc tastes very classic.
Muamup Chardonnay has strong mineral and is creamy at the same time, single original from Margaret River. They also offers Mad Fish brand, a bit reasonable but not less tasty, we loved Malbec and Pinot Gris which is only 3 palettes this year and only
