Howard Park, Margaret River (Western Australia, Australia) Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Jan 8, 2019

By Michael Franz

 This wine has a lot going for it:  Impressive concentration, complex aromas and flavors, a high ratio of quality to price, and an excellent nickname.  How could you not like a wine called “Maimup”?  Dark berry notes are accented with whiffs of spices, dried herbs and cocoa powder, with soft tannins but enough structure to work well with almost any robust dish.  Ready to enjoy now, but sure to hold at its present quality level or even improve for several additional years.
