  Tried the 2022 Spottswoode at a dinner party along with the new Vinum Dei SB. Overall preferred the Vinum Dei, but always love the Spottswoode.
  This '22 Spottswoode is a zesty little number that makes my taste buds do a happy dance! Vibrant, with great aromas of grapefruit zest, freshly mowed lawn, and lemongrass. On the palate, it's a fruit salad of lime, green apple, and passionfruit flavors, backed by a brilliant zinginess. Plenty of racy concentration, while still being an elegant, lifted style. Fermented in a mix of stainless and neutral oak, there's no buttery or oaky business here. One of the best Napa SB's.

  What a delight, and so consistent in quality from vintage to vintage. Peach and stone fruit aromas, and a herbal element. The palate is beautifully textured with refreshing acidity. Restrained and balanced. I would gladly drink this on its own. It’s easy to see why the whites were Mary Weber Novak’s favourite Spottswoode wines.

  Classic SB, plenty of lemon, stone fruit, grass. A little more weight on the palate than I expect from an SB. Plenty of fresh acidity and longish finish. Nice to see this acidity after the 2019 was showing less than usual.
