Spottswoode, Cabernet Sauvignon Vintage:2021 all wrapped in a wonderfully

all wrapped in a wonderfully long and pure finish

yet nothing is over the top

youthfully austere and mildly rustic finish

but the 2015 is done in a style that is more similar to that of its big brother

Spottswoode, Cabernet Sauvignon Vintage:2021 all wrapped in a wonderfullyClearly a stupendous effort but just far too young at this stage, Spottswoode's 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon boasts a concentrated, velvety core of black cherries, cassis and dusty loam, then supports it with hints of cedar and toasted oak. It's full bodied, rich and youthfully intense, with a long, compelling finish that just won't quit. Give it a few more years, and it may indeed reach the perfection my predecessor predicted for it.
