2017 Howard Park Abercrombie Cabernet Sauvignon 750ml

The bouquet of this wine is all perfume, poise and pleasure for the lover of fine Cabernet. Great depth and nuance, as the sweet and saintly violets meld with bush herbs as fresh blue and black fruits, gently simmer beneath the surface. Naturally the flavour and structure of the palate is no less exciting. A graphite mineral/savoury note gives a defined flavour and direction to start as rich berry fruits dominate the mid palate then succumb to supple, linear fruit tannins, cajoled by slick cocoa oak notes that complete the wine. This wine is an organoleptic extravaganza and will give great enjoyment for decades.
