Produced by \u003cspan class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"whitespace-normal\"\u003eHoward Park Wines\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e, Abercrombie is the winery's premier Cabernet Sauvignon, crafted only from the finest vineyard parcels across Margaret River and the Great Southern.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"473\" data-end=\"840\"\u003eNamed after the Abercrombie family, whose heritage played an important role in the establishment of Howard Park, this iconic wine represents the pinnacle of the estate's Cabernet Sauvignon program. The exceptional 2009 vintage delivered fruit of outstanding concentration, structure, and balance, producing a wine that has matured beautifully over more than a decade.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"842\" data-end=\"1188\"\u003eFruit was sourced from carefully selected estate vineyards, combining Margaret River's classic cassis-rich fruit profile with the elegance and structure of Great Southern Cabernet Sauvignon. Following fermentation, the wine was matured in premium French oak barrels, allowing complexity and structure to develop while maintaining varietal purity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1190\" data-end=\"1550\"\u003eNow entering a superb stage of maturity, the bouquet reveals layers of blackcurrant, cassis, blackberry, and dark plum, intertwined with notes of cedar, cigar box, graphite, tobacco leaf, dried herbs, and dark chocolate. Additional tertiary complexities of leather, forest floor, and savoury spice have emerged with bottle age, adding depth and sophistication.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1552\" data-end=\"1840\"\u003eThe palate is full-bodied yet beautifully refined, with concentrated dark fruit supported by silky tannins, vibrant acidity, and exceptional balance. The wine remains remarkably fresh and structured, leading to a long, persistent finish that highlights its pedigree and ageing capability.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1842\" data-end=\"2097\"\u003eDrinking magnificently now, the 2009 Abercrombie Cabernet Sauvignon represents a rare opportunity to experience a mature example of one of Australia's benchmark Cabernet Sauvignons. Well-stored bottles will continue to provide enjoyment for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2099\" data-end=\"2318\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2099\" data-end=\"2110\"\u003eWinery:\u003c\/strong\u003e Howard Park Wines\u003cbr data-start=\"2128\" data-end=\"2131\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2131\" data-end=\"2142\"\u003eRegion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Margaret River \u0026amp; Great Southern, Western Australia\u003cbr data-start=\"2193\" data-end=\"2196\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2196\" data-end=\"2208\"\u003eVariety:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cabernet Sauvignon\u003cbr data-start=\"2227\" data-end=\"2230\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2230\" data-end=\"2242\"\u003eVintage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2009\u003cbr data-start=\"2247\" data-end=\"2250\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2250\" data-end=\"2260\"\u003eStyle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full-Bodied \u0026amp; Age-Worthy Red Wine\u003cbr data-start=\"2294\" data-end=\"2297\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2297\" data-end=\"2309\" data-is-only-node=\"\"\u003eClosure:\u003c\/strong\u003e Screwcap\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2320\" data-end=\"2438\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"2320\" data-end=\"2337\"\u003eFood Pairing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Beef Wellington, dry-aged ribeye, roast lamb, venison, braised beef cheeks, and mature hard cheeses.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alepat Taylor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52161585152302,"sku":"5774577648","price":139.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0686\/6596\/6894\/files\/2009HowardParkAbercrombieCabernetSauvignon750mlfront.png?v=1780962370","url":"https:\/\/www.jcfinewines.au\/products\/2009-howard-park-abercrombie-cabernet-sauvignon-750ml","provider":"JC FINE WINES","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
