About the Spottswoode Cabernet Sauvignon 2020
The 2020 Spottswoode Estate Cabernet Sauvignon is an remarkably resilient and elegant wine from a historically challenging vintage in Napa Valley. Despite the regional wildfire concerns, Spottswoode’s meticulous estate management and early harvest allowed them to produce a wine of great purity and depth. It opens with sophisticated aromas of black cherry, wild blackberry, and crushed violets, interwoven with notes of graphite, pencil shavings, and warm baking spices. On the palate, the wine displays the estate’s signature "St. Helena" finesse, featuring a medium-to-full body with exceptionally fine-grained, silky tannins and a vibrant line of acidity. The finish is long and poised, offering layers of dark fruit and savory earthiness that suggest surprising longevity for the vintage.
Spottswoode's 2020 Cabernet Sauvignon offers up hints of barrel char and a slightly roasted character, but the fruit itself—cassis and black cherries—is cool, even minty. This vintage is medium to full-bodied, not overly ripe or textural, with an excellent balance of firmness and freshness on the long, grippy finish. Tight and in need of some cellaring, it should evolve nicely for a couple of decades.
