Review
Stunning! Beautiful aromatics of candied violet, blackberry, blueberry yogurt, and cassis, Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 is powerfully expressive with sturdy, firm tannins, generous acidity, and a long lively finish marked by cedar and toffee notes. An elegant vintage, this spectacular wine captures the essence of the Spottswoode Estate Vineyard. It is fresh and youthful now with a long life ahead.
