The Spottswoode Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2013 displays incredible depth and complexity of flavor. This is not a vintage to miss. Intense aromas of blue and black fruit leap out of the glass, while notes of fresh baked goods, chocolate covered cherries, caramel, spice, coffee bean, and crème brûlée mingle with savory notes of bay leaves and tobacco. The palate is wonderfully balanced, with firm tannins and an excellent structure. Enjoy this red wine now, or let it cellar for several years to mature into its prime.
