1987 Howard Park Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot Tasting Notes

Composition: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Region: 100% Cabernet Sauvignon
Technical Notes:

Extended skin contact post fermentation 30 days. Maturation in 100% new French oak barriques (Seguin-Moreau) for 24 months.

Tasting Notes:

The 1987 was made from 100% Great Southern Cabernet Sauvignon. A lovely blood red colour with some tanning showing around the rim, the wine offers classic cassis characters with herbal tones. Development is more advanced than the 1986, the palate is clean and fruity without the powerful complexity of the 1986.
