Bid on this bottle of 1995 Spottswoode Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon (97RP, 92TWI, 92VN, 92WS). Wine Advocate: "A blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc, and the last wine made by Pam Starr at Rombauer Vineyards, the 1995 offers worthy competition to the magnificent 1994, which was more highly heralded. A touch of spring flowers, intermixed with crème de cassis, licorice, lead-pencil shavings and cedar, are all present in this wine of great intensity and full-bodied power, but with an elegance and finesse that, again, similarly suggests a Château Margaux made in St. Helena. (RP)" (08/2016)

The 1995 Cabernet Sauvignon, with 5% Cabernet Franc in the blend, is medium brick in color. Notions of charcuterie, tapenade, and oolong tea waft from the nose, over a core of redcurrant preserves, dried mint, and plum preserves with a hint of crushed rocks. The medium-bodied palate has a chewy texture and lively backbone supporting the delicate earth-laced red and black fruit preserves flavors, finishing minerally. (LPB)
