2023 Howard Park Miamup Cabernet Sauvignon
$30.00
Margaret River is arguably Australia’s premier Cabernet Sauvignon grape growing region and Cabernet Sauvignon its greatest natural asset. Great Cabernet should be both perfumed and poised, and meticulous site selection is critical to achieving these key attributes. Miamup Cabernet Sauvignon is a vibrant regional expression of abundant flavour and elegant structure.
Margaret River
TASTING NOTE
Vintage
The 2023 Miamup Cabernet Sauvignon reflects the felicity of Margaret River’s climate, vineyards and soils for growing and ripening perfectly balanced and intensely flavoursome Cabernet grapes. Without showing off, this young wine frames an ideal expression of the variety, with a nose of harmonious intensity, fresh dark fruit and black olive perfumes overlaying a fine thread of sweet mocha and cedarwood. The palate is lushly fruited with an array of allusions ranging from raspberry through to blackcurrant, and complementary accents of coffee and Vincotto. A juicy texture resolves into typical Cabernet tannins, present and fine, with the pliancy to confer the desirable characteristic of extreme drinkability to a wine that maintains some layers of complexity to be revealed by medium-term ageing.
Food Match
A perfect accompaniment to a classic beef and bacon burger, served with a side of polenta fries.
Recommended Cellaring
Drink now or cellar for 5 to 8 years.
