Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 Napa Valley
Verkostungsnotiz von Lisa Perrotti-Brown für den Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 am 29. Oktober 2018: Deep garnet-purple colored. the 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon has a drop-dead gorgeous nose of Sichuan pepper. hoisin. peppered salami and fertile loam over a core of blackberry preserves and redcurrant jelly with touches of kirsch and pencil shavings. Medium to full-bodied and concentrated yet still maintaining that wonderful purity and elegance that is the signature of this estate. it has layer upon layer of earthy nuances and a very long finish.
Verkostungsnotiz von James Suckling für den Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 am 26. Januar 2017: Amazing burnt-orange and currant aromas with tar and lead pencil. Blackberries. too. Changes all the time. Mesmerizing. Full-bodied and powerful with super-polished tannins and a long and intense finish. The polished and fine tannins coat your mouth. Glorious. Needs three to four years to soften.
Verkostungsnotiz von Antonio Galloni für den Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon 2014 im Dezember 2018: The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon comes across as a blend of the 2013 and 2012. with the darker fruit profile of the former and the mid-weight structure of the latter. Hints of mocha. chocolate. tobacco. menthol and licorice add shades of nuance. but the 2014 is in that stage where bottles are best left alone for several more years. Even so. the 2014 is another striking. alluring wine from Spottswoode.
