Founded in 1882, Spottswoode Estate is a family-owned property located in St. Helena. The winery is renowned for its commitment to organic farming and producing high-quality, elegant Cabernet Sauvignon wines that showcase the unique terroir of their vineyards. The 2010 Spottswoode Estate Cabernet Sauvignon displays a vibrant nose of black currants, black cherries and blueberries, complemented by notes of cedar, graphite and spices. On the palate, this full-bodied wine offers a harmonious balance of rich dark fruit flavours, well-integrated tannins, and a refreshing acidity.

Good bright ruby. Huckleberry, blackberry, violet and licorice on the scented nose; became increasingly floral with air--a real essence of its St. Helena site. Enters the mouth suave, silky and floral; wonderfully pliant in spite of its acid-driven energy, precision and youthfulness. The wine's perfume and definition pique the taste buds in the middle palate and on the very long, rising finish, where the noble tannins play a supporting role without impinging. This wonderfully youthful, floral wine appears to be at the beginning of a long plane of peak drinkability. Really fills the mouth with perfume, but not at all weighty or overly fleshy. Finishes with great sappy, rising length and grip. My sample was even better after 72 hours.Stephen Tanzer1st May 2020
