Spottswoode Estate was created in 1882 but it was only a century later in 1982 that Mary and Jack Novak released their first Cabernet Sauvignon. Since that inaugural vintage they have cemented a reputation as once of the finest producers in California, renowned for their incredibly high quality and remarkably consistent Bordeaux blends. This is the flagship wine and is their ultimate expression of Cabernet Sauvignon from their organically farmed estate vineyard. From the exceptional 2016 vintage, this is a staggering vintage of prodigious quality. It is rich, powerful and textural, exhibiting seamless balance throughout and a finish of quite remarkable length and complexity. A sensational wine with a near 40-year potential lifespan.
