Maturing very nicely, onto secondaries, Spotteswood shines here.

Decanted at 1862 restaurant. A solid well made CA cab, characteristic mineral and fruit, this expression was especially abundant in balanced red cherries, which I appreciated.

Last bottle from a case of six. The first five were fantastic, but this one had a protruding cork (about 1/8") so I had my doubts about it. The cork was soaked nearly to the top and was very spongy. The result: good fruit masked by a whole lot of acetone. The VA just sucked the life out of the wine. It was very narrow and hollow.

Almost identical notes compared to the bottle we opened last month with the exception of much more tobacco noted on palate. The wine has matured very well and we expect to enjoy our remaining bottles over the next few years.

tasted along side 2009 larkmead. give this one a couple of points on the larkmead. More fruit more everything. drinking beautifully now, but feel that it could soften with a bit more time. Still dark ruby to the rim, full with a long finish.

This is what a Napa cab should be; big but balanced; black and blue fruit with graphite and spices. A wow wine to me.

Dark and concentrated, bit reductive when first decanted but blossomed into a classic cassis-driven Napa cab with loads of fruit, structure and a fair amount of tanins.

A delicious cabernet. Well balanced with bright red and black fruits blended with minerality and tannins giving it backbone to carry into a long finish.

5 Cabernet Sauvignons tasted from the 1980s. Nose of black cherry, black currants, cassis and plum, same on the palate, elegant, terrific tasting, got better and better throughout dinner that lasted for 3 hours, big body, rich fruit, good acid, flavorful and long on the finish and what an aftertaste, made you want another taste. My #1 of 5, Two second place votes and another first place vote.

Wine has matured beautifully. Plenty of cassis and dark berry aromas and fruit on palate. Perfect balance with a lengthy smooth non-tannic finish. A well made Spottswoode cab.

This is on point, and if you have any, do enjoy. Gorgeous aromatics, and the palate has that glorious mouth filling black cherry, perfect acid balance and tannins that provide structure. Lovely finish. Yes, it could last years, but I wouldn't necessarily wait if I had more. My last, and best, bottle.

Decanted 30 min, rebottled & opened 2 hours later. Soft mature blueberries, drinking really nice now. Not sure more years will improve it.

Decanted for 40mins and highly advisable. Tasted blind
Has a syrah-esque start, spicy, exotic spice. Very much new world, ripe core of fruit, balanced though, in that classicist style of new world, Togni, Jensen and others. Just about entering its drinking window now and will remain here and improve for the next 15yrs. Very solid. 93 for now

Not sure exactly on this one. Seemed pretty substantial for a 2011 cab, but may have been too young to get a fair appraisal. Seemed to have the components, but not sure it tasted good enough for what I expect from Spottswoode. Time will tell.
