Spottswoode Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 Magnum

Spottswoode Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2016 Magnum is a richly layered Napa Valley red that combines depth, power, and refinement in the generous magnum format. Crafted from Cabernet Sauvignon with Cabernet Franc and Petit Verdot, it reflects one of California’s most respected estate traditions and offers the kind of complexity that makes Spottswoode a benchmark name in fine wine.

Tasting Notes
In the glass, it shows a deep purple color that hints at its concentration and youthful structure. The nose is intense and expressive, with aromas of blackcurrant, blueberry, liquorice, and scorched earth, lifted by subtle oak and spice notes. The palate is full-bodied and beautifully balanced, with ripe fruit, sweet tannins, and a firm, structured frame. There is impressive depth and a long, persistent finish, giving the wine excellent aging potential; in magnum, it should evolve especially gracefully over time.

Production
Sourced from Spottswoode’s estate vineyards in Napa Valley, this wine benefits from the region’s warm days, cool nights, and soils that support concentrated, terroir-driven Cabernet Sauvignon. The blend of Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Petit Verdot adds aromatic lift, structure, and complexity. Vinification is carried out with an emphasis on preserving purity of fruit, site expression, and fine-grained tannins through careful harvesting and élevage.

Food & Serving
This is an ideal match for premium red meats such as ribeye, filet mignon, braised short ribs, or roast lamb, as well as richer dishes featuring mushrooms or truffle. Serve at 16–18°C, and consider decanting for 1–2 hours if opening young to allow the aromas and structure to fully open.
