This Howard Park A.S.W. Cabernet Sauvignon Shiraz from Margaret River 2020 is expected to offer a complex aromatic profile. On the nose, anticipate rich dark fruits like blackcurrant, blackberry, and plum, interwoven with savory notes of cedar, mint, and a hint of leafy freshness characteristic of Margaret River Cabernet. Subtle hints of spice, such as black pepper and clove, along with a touch of vanilla or toast from oak aging, should also be present. The palate will be full-bodied and well-structured, mirroring the nose with a concentrated core of dark fruit, savory herbal elements, and a spicy kick. Fine-grained, firm tannins will provide excellent grip and length, balanced by a refreshing acidity. The finish is expected to be long, persistent, and harmonious, leaving lingering impressions of dark fruit, spice, and a touch of earthy complexity.
