Score 89/100 · Drink 2005-2015, Robert Parker, Dec 2005
Trying to upgrade their estate wines, Spottswoode has decided to produce a second wine called Lyndenhurst from young Cabernet Sauvignon vines. This is a very attractive alternative to the more expensive flagship wine. The 2002 has creamy richness, round, elegant dark berry flavors, spicy oak, and is ideal for drinking over the next 7-10 years. Tel. (707) 963-0134; Fax (707) 963-2886

About the producer

Spottswoode
Spottswoode is one of those rare Napa estates whose reputation rests less on volume or spectacle than on persistent exactitude. Set on the western edge of St Helena, where the Mayacamas rise and afternoon breezes temper the valley’s warmth, the vineyard occupies a favoured pocket of the appellation.
