SPOTTSWOODE CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2011 (1)
St. Helena, Napa Valley.
u. bn.
Deep garnet colored, the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon leaps from the glass with notions of minted cassis, chocolate box, rose hip tea and forest floor over a core of kirsch, Black Forest cake, dried Mediterranean herbs and mossy bark. Medium-bodied, lithe and refreshing in the mouth, the palate has wonderful freshness and a lovely mineral-tinged finish. Still very youthful. October 2018 Drink: 2020-2040 WA 95
SPOTTSWOODE CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2012 (2)
St. Helena, Napa Valley.
u. 2 x bn.
The 2012 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet colored and opens with a nose that is just begging to be drunk, featuring warm cassis, charcuterie, molten chocolate, wild mushrooms and roasted nuts with nuances of cigar box, incense and menthol. Medium-bodied, the palate reveals beautiful intensity and depth, sporting very fine-grained, exquisitely ripe tannins and finishing with plenty of savory layers and a peppery kick. October 2018 Drink: 2020-2045 WA 99
