Stunning! Beautiful aromatics of candied violet, blackberry, blueberry yogurt, and cassis. Powerfully expressive with sturdy, firm tannins, generous acidity, and a long lively finish marked by cedar and toffee notes. An elegant vintage, this spectacular wine captures the essence of the Spottswoode Estate Vineyard. It is fresh and youthful now with a long life ahead.
Blend: 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Cabernet Franc, 4% Petit Verdot
Celebrating a milestone of 40 vintages, this winery has been guided by CEO Beth Novak since 1987. Its historic 42-acre estate vineyard has been farmed organically since 1985 and is now certified biodynamic and regenerative organic; Spottswoode is also a member of B Corp and the International Wineries for Climate Action's Gold level. With a small addition of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, this Cab aged 20 months in barrel offers a velvet-lined entry of blue fruit that promptly seduces the palate. Soothing notes of dark chocolate-violet ganache and quince contribute further impact, strengthened by an elegant backbone
This offers a gorgeous display of pure, unadulterated mulberry, boysenberry and plum fruit puree flavors that glisten as they move along, throwing off light accents of anise, violet and hibiscus along the way. Inlaid with an underlying fine-grained structure in the form of sleek threads of iron and alder, this shows tensile strength while extending through the long, refined finish.
