10,000 unique labels
generated from vineyard data

Re-imagining the visual expression of a vineyard’s provenance through data. Harewood Estate’s FLUX wine packaging uses Generative Design to capture the essence of each varietal. An algorithm using vineyard and vinification datasets was developed to enable 10,000 unique, one‑of‑a‑kind labels to be produced.

Interacting with photographs from Harewood Estate’s archive the algorithm created a continuous flow or ‘flux’ of new images; a world first, that has drawn substantial interest from industry and media prior to its 2017 release.

You can purchase Harewood Estate FLUX‑I, FLUX‑II, FLUX‑III and FLUX‑IV online or through our regular retailers.

Shaped by Future Days for
Harewood Estate

Even by Australian standards, Great Southern is vast.
It's one of the largest, most isolated wine regions in the world.

Denmark.

400km or so south of Perth, you’ll find our home, estate block and winery. Driving in, there’s a series of steep hills and valleys before you emerge onto the rolling slopes of the vineyard and eventually, the Southern Ocean.

It’s a pristine place, long cool summer days and ‘mean’ gravelly soils that slowly ripen the grapes to produce wines of intense flavours.

  • Latitude 35°1’S
  • Altitude 50m
  • Heat degree days 1471
  • Growing season rainfall 354mm
  • Mean January temp 18.7°C
Frankland River.

Ask around, Frankland River produces some of the best Shiraz in Australia. The climate here is Mediterranean - dry and sunny - and results in wines of hefty weight and complexity.

The river valley has a crucial role, funnelling cool and humid air north from the ocean moderating the afternoon heat to provide a long, slow ripening period for grapes.

  • Latitude 34°22’S
  • Altitude 230m
  • Heat degree days 1441
  • Growing season rainfall 310mm
  • Mean January temp 20.6°C
Mount Barker.

Mount Barker is the birthplace of the Great Southern. It was here in 1955 that the pioneering American viticulturalist Harold Olmo recommended growing grapes for European-style table wines.

Despite its lofty name, Mount Barker is largely dry, open grazing country with scattered vineyards, but it was the gravelly soil conditions that Olmo likened to Bordeaux, in France.

  • Latitude 34°35’S
  • Altitude 250m
  • Heat degree days 1488
  • Growing season rainfall 287mm
  • Mean January temp 19.0°C
Porongurup.

The feel of Porongurup is quite different from neighbouring Mount Barker.

Great stands of towering Eucalypt forest and a massive series of rounded granite knobs give way to sweeping views out over the Porongurup Ranges.

This elevated vineyard produces crisp, cool-climate wines on granite soils.

Wines

The Great Southern wine growing region provides unmatched versatility and quality for a winemaker. From the elegance and delicacy of cool climate Riesling to the restrained intensity of Denmark Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. The texture and richness of Mount Barker Cabernet and the structure, weight and complexity of Frankland River Shiraz.

Harewood Estate showcases this potential in a range of wines produced from grapes grown in select, low yielding vineyards.

Apricus Hill, established in 1995, is the highest vineyard in Denmark on Western Australia’s far south coast.  At 750 feet above sea level and with panoramic views of the Southern Ocean the vineyard experiences a significant maritime effect with cooling ocean breezes making it a true “cool climate” vineyard.

This Sauvignon Blanc has been made with only the “free run” juice – the first run, finest quality juice without the bitterness and phenolics associated with the grape skin.  Two thirds of the juice was fermented at low temperatures in a stainless-steel tank to capture the inherent delicacy and finesse of this aromatic variety.  The balance was fermented in new French oak 500 litre puncheons adding texture, spice and complexity to the blend.

A brilliant, clear steely white with youthful green hues with a vibrant lifted nose of gooseberry and citrus with grassy, savoury notes and hints of gunflint and toasty French oak.  Grapefruit and passionfruit combine with a textured savoury mid palate with hints of melon and spicy vanillin oak leading to a long crisp finish.

This wine will improve with up to 5 years careful cellaring. The use of screw cap technology is critical to the longevity of this wine.

Each vintage our winemakers explore new varieties, vineyards, styles and techniques.

Occasionally these trials and experiments yield results that deserve to see the “light of day”.

Some of the wines may never be produced again creating a selection of wines that will be forever in a state of “flux”.

Similarly, the label is also in a state of flux – each individually numbered bottle has its own unique image.

A digital thumbprint is created for each wine using its unique data – tonnes harvested, date harvested, GPS location of the vineyard, chemical analysis, bottles produced, etc.

The wine’s numerical “identity” is used to manipulate the label generating thousands of unique iterations.

 

The 2018 vintage has been described as one of the best in memory.  The perfect conditions (not too hot and not too dry) resulted in some outstanding parcels of fruits producing wines that will be long lived.

This wine is a blend of three special batches from the 2018 vintage - Denmark Malbec, Denmark Cabernet and Mount Barker Cabernet.  It has been matured in 2/3 new and 1/3 second fill French oak barriques coopered in Bordeaux.

Extended maturation in barrel has given the firm tannins time to soften and allowed the young primary fruit characters to mellow into a more polished, complex wine where the vanilla, spice and structure imparted by the best French oak plays an equal part.

A spicy aromatic nose of blackcurrant and cigar box with hints of liquorice, tar and leather.

The palate is plush and moreish with ripe black fruits and stewed plum leading to a complex, spicy, earthy mid palate with hints of coffee bean and dark chocolate and a long finish of fine velvety tannins.

This wine will improve with up to fifteen years careful cellaring.

This wine is a traditional "Bordeaux" blend of premium parcels of Cabernet sauvignon, Malbec and Cabernet franc sourced from specialist vineyards in Denmark, the Porongurups and Frankland River in the Great Southern, Western Australia.

The Cabernet sauvignon from the Frankland River vineyard provides a richer note to support the brighter elegance of the grapes from the higher altitude Porongurups vineyard and the cooler climate, maritime vineyard in Denmark.

The individual parcels of fruit were “cold-soaked” prior to fermentation with specialised yeast isolated from vineyards in Bordeaux.

This pre-ferment treatment permits a gentler extraction of tannins, whilst enhancing fruit intensity.

The wine then underwent malolactic fermentation and maturation in an equal mix of new and one-year old French oak barriques. After one year in oak, the individual barriques were subjected to an exhaustive selection process to arrive at the final blend which was then matured for a further 12 months in French oak.

James Kellie

I was fortunate to land my dream winemaking job at the renowned Howard Park, in the Great Southern. The plan at that stage was to hone my skills, learn as much as I could and move to Tasmania; 15 years later we’re still here. 

In 1998, whilst at Howard Park, I started making wine on contract for Harewood and in 2003 my family and I took the plunge to purchase Harewood Estate. It was a nerve-racking time, we decided to build a 300 tonne winery and were up to our necks. I knew it was ambitious, but we were making a serious commitment to develop sub-regional wines that showcased the variety of the Great Southern.

Hard work is paying off; the winery has grown to 500 tonnes and we’ve received 31 national and international Trophies, hundreds of medals and the coveted 5 Red Star Rating from influential wine critic James Halliday which is awarded to the top 5% of Australian wineries for “a consistent record of excellence”.

The aim of Harewood Estate hasn’t changed: grapes are grown in select, low yielding vineyards to create wines that represent the best the region has to offer.

Awards

For 17 consecutive years, Harewood Estate has received 5 stars from James Halliday - Australia’s most influential wine critic - for “wines of exemplary quality and typicity”.

We have been awarded the elusive Five Red Stars for a "consistent record of excellence" since its introduction in 2006.

More than anything else, these awards are a testament to the quality of wine grapes grown throughout the Great Southern region.
