Spottswoode Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2005 originates from the historic, organically farmed estate vineyard in St. Helena, California, established in 1882. This wine is principally Cabernet Sauvignon, accompanied by small amounts of Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot. The vineyard benefits from alluvial clay loam and maritime influences, contributing to the wine`s structure. The 2005 vintage presents notes of dark fruit, including blackcurrant and blackberry, alongside hints of cedar and graphite. Aged in French oak barrels for approximately 22 months, this Cabernet Sauvignon illustrates the producer’s commitment to craftsmanship and longevity.

Vinous
Deep, bright red-ruby. Sexy, very dark aromas of crushed black raspberry, boysenberry, menthol and licorice, with suggestions of very ripe fruit. A powerful and very primary wine with outstanding concentration and depth. Conveys an impression of medicinal reserve to its black cherry, dark berry and menthol flavors. Really exhilarating sugar/acid balance here. Finishes with big, ripe tannins and superb length.Stephen Tanzer1st June 2016
