Lot 25 Details
SPOTTSWOODE CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2016 (OC)

Napa Valley.

Still quite dark-hued, youthful and primary, Spottswoode's 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon features loads of powerful black cherries and cassis. It's medium to full-bodied and nicely structured, with a bit more of an acid edge than some vintages, which beautifully complements the ripe, supple tannins and serves to lengthen and freshen the long, licorice-tinged finish. While approachable now, it should drink well for at least another 15 years. September 2022 Drink to 2040 WA 96+ VM 96+

6 bts.    per lot $2,200 - $2,500
