Our Review
Over the last 30 years, the Burch family has slowly acquired vineyards in Margaret River and Great Southern. The Margaret River vineyards range from Leston in Wilyabrup to Allingham in southern Karridale; Great Southern includes Mount Barrow and Abercrombie, with Houghton cabernet clones, planted in ’75, all in Mount Barker. The feng shui–designed cellar door is a must-see. A founding member of Australia’s First Families of Wine. -JAMES HALLIDAY

Cellar Door
Information
The Margaret River Cellar Door is open from 10am - 5pm daily, except for Christmas Day, Boxing Day, New Year's Day & Good Friday. Our architecturally acclaimed cellar door and luxury wine chapel provide the perfect backdrop to enjoy a range of wine tasting experiences. Set on 138 hectares of vines and native bushland, less than 5 minutes from the town of Cowaramup, The Howard Park Cellar Door is where we welcome visitors and offer tastings of interest and depth that embrace Howard Park’s heritage and provenance: the vision of one family, two generations, two wine regions and four vineyards. Positioned on the highest point of our Leston vineyard, the award-winning structure adheres to Feng Shui design and orientation principles, with a careful balance of natural materials, including native timber, concrete and steel. In its design, the Burch family wanted to create a modern building designed to grow old – a concept synonymous with crafting age-worthy wines.
