SPOTTSWOODE CABERNET SAUVIGNON 1991

Napa Valley.
u. 2 x vts.

This wine still has a dense, ruby/bluish-purple color, full body, a stunning nose of black raspberry, blackcurrant, licorice and camphor. The wine has fabulous intensity, full body, sweet tannin and a long, long finish. It is easy to say this has reached full maturity, but it still has a youthfulness and vibrancy that belies that notion. Look for this to continue to drink well for another 20 years. This is a great vintage for Napa Bordeaux blends. August 2016. Drink. to 2036 WA 96

2 bts.    per lot $400 - $600
