Bid on this magnum of 2016 Spottswoode "Estate" Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon (1.5L) (100JD, 100TWP, 97DC, 96RP, 96VN, 96WE, 96WS, 95JS). Jeb Dunnuck: "Also perfect, yet in a very different style, the 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate can be thought of as mix of the 2010 and 2015. Classic Cabernet notes of green tobacco, pure cassis, sappy flowers, crushed stone, and cedar all emerge from the glass, and it’s full-bodied, with a layered, multi-dimensional texture, building tannins, and one blockbuster of a finish. This continues to show incredibly consistency and I’ve been lucky enough to have multiple bottles, all of which have topped out my scale. This is unquestionably a legendary Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon that will hit maturity in about a decade or so and keep for 40-50 years." (05/2021)

The Wine Palate

05/2025
The 2016 Cabernet Sauvignon, with 12% Petit Verdot and 9% Cabernet Franc in the blend, is medium to deep garnet colored. The wine from this powerful vintage seems shut-down at this stage, slowly emerging from the glass with notes of black cherry compote, wild blueberries, and boysenberry preserves, with hints of menthol, cloves, and fragrant soil. The palate is full-bodied with a refreshing line and fine-grained tannins supporting the vibrant, youthful black and blue fruits, finishing with a floral lift. (LPB)
