- TASTING NOTE: "This shows lots of chocolate and vanilla on the nose, together with ripe dark fruit and some wet earth. Floral undertones, too. Full-bodied and balanced with a meaty structure and ripe tannin. Yet, it’s easy to drink with a medium, fruity finish. Tight, dry and firm at the end. Modern and poised. Try from 2023." 94 POINTS - JAMES SUCKLING

- ABOUT THE PRODUCER: First established in 1882, Spottswoode Estate was purchased by Mary and Jack Novak in 1972. After Jack's sudden passing in 1977, Mary took over the running of the estate and released Spottswoode’s first Cabernet Sauvignon in 1982, exactly one hundred years after the estate’s founding. The wine was a huge success and over the next two decades Mary grew Spottswoode into one of the worlds finest producers of Cabernet. The estate was a pioneer of organic viticulture in the Napa and now incorporates biodynamic principals into it's farming. Today the estate is run by Mary's daughter Beth and winemaker and vineyard manager Aron Weinkauf.
