2016 SPOTTSWOODE "ESTATE" CABERNET SAUVIGNON From Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate, " An extraordinary wine of profound and complex character displaying all the attributes expected of a classic wine of its variety. Wines of this caliber are worth a special effort to find, purchase, and consume.Deep garnet-purple in color, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon is still very tight and youthful, slowly unfurling to reveal a multifaceted wine with tons of black, blue and red fruit sparks – plums, cherries, black currants and red currants – with dark chocolate, cedar chest, black tea and red roses in the background plus wafts of pencil lead and prosciutto. Medium-bodied and firmly texturedby superbly ripe, grainy tannins, it has a fantastic core of intense, complex layers, finishing on anedifying mineral note. Wow! 2022–2060." 100 Points
