Spottswoode • Cabernet Sauvignon

Perfekter Napa Cabernet Cabernet Sauvignon 2015 Spottswoode Napa Valley, Kalifornien, USA Wine Advocate, Oktober 2018 (Parker/Perotti) 100/100 The 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon is deep garnet-purple colored with a mind-blowingly gorgeous nose that defies words: warm cassis, red roses, sandalwood, Indian spices, crushed rocks, menthol and iron ore with waft of lilacs and truffles. Medium to full-bodied with a rock-solid frame of super-ripe, grainy tannins and tons of freshness, it finishes incredibly long and remains incredibly provocative. Wine Advocate #228, Dezmeber 2016 (Parker) 96-100/100 A core blend of what will likely be the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon consists of 94% Cabernet Sauvignon, 4% Cabernet Franc and 2% Petit Verdot. Opulent, with a voluptuous texture, that wonderful sucrosity that is characteristic of this vintage, and sweet, sweet blue and black fruits interwoven with a floral dimension, this is a full-bodied, gorgeously proportioned, super-rich and intense Spottswoode that should drink remarkably well when finally released and age nicely for 25 or more years. This wine has incredible upside potential, so don’t miss it.
