Lot 168 Details
SPOTTSWOODE ESTATE CABERNET SAUVIGNON 2010
Napa Valley.

Consistently perfect from barrel and bottle multiple times, the 2010 is one of the recent blockbuster efforts from Spottswoode. Superb aromatics of spring flowers, blue and black fruits, forest floor and a touch of toast, are followed by a wine of exceptional intensity, texture, purity and a full-bodied finish with velvety, but noticeable tannins. This is still extremely young, but also remarkably impressive even though it is only six years of age. Expect this to hit its prime in about 10 years and last for at least 40. 100 WA


6 bts. (OC) per lot $1,900 - $2,300

Realised: $2,400
Price Includes Buyer's Premium ?
