Howard Park uses the best fruit from its holdings in Margaret River and Great Southern to produce the flagship Abercrombie Cabernet Sauvignon. Last night, I drank some 2007 Howard Park Abercrombie from Magnum.
The flavours were typical Cabernet Sauvignon; red- and blackcurrant, capsicum; also cigarbox and a hint of mint. The wine was still very fresh (screwcap). I found it quite lean for the vintage. The tannins were firm, and the wine finished with medium length.
I expected more generosity.
Score: 93/+
