Harewood Estate wines showcase the diverse and spectacular Great Southern region. Based in Denmark, along the coast overlooking the Southern Ocean, the estate vineyards cover two sites off Scotsdale Road north of the town: the original Harewood vineyard and the recently acquired Apricus Hill. 

The free run juice was fermented in powerful French oak coopered in Burgundy introducing spicey, toasty complexity and rich creamy texture. Aromas of toasty oak and roasted cashews support rich nectarine fruit with hints of melon complementing a long grapefruit finish. This wine will improve with up to ten years careful cellaring.

The fruit here is from the Denmark sub-region in Western Australia's Great Southern district, and it takes advantage of the maritime aspect the place offers. This is a level or two above your average drink-now, commercial Chardy, with an intriguing cerebral aspect. It is an impressive wine. Pale lemon/yellow in colour, the nose gives us notes of spices, lemon curd, cashew, citrus, stone fruits, mandarins, peaches and a touch of apricot kernel. There is a creamy texture and we are seeing evidence of the early complexity, which will surely grow. The wine has balance and excellent length and should provide a great deal of pleasure over the next six to eight years. Lots to like here. Drink to: 2025-2033; Rating: 94 Points; Ken Gargett

Lots of peach, lots of honeydew melon, a vigorous shake of brown spice, a touch of toffee, clove and cedar here. There's richness to texture, but a very bright line of saline acidity makes things perkier and livelier. A bit of green mango bitterness follows through. It's a charismatic, four-square style, but ease of drinking and depth of fruit elevates the offering.
