Spottswoode Napa Valley Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 flor thus was Dry Tokaji bornPure black currants on the nose with an incredible al dente grape character. Its almost like grape must. Undertone of ink and violets and sandalwood. Perfumed. Hints of spearmint. Full bodied, but so well formed and reserved. A touch of mint on the palate with dark fruits. It is very complete and reminds me of the classy Spottswoode 2001. I keep being impressed with the purity of fruit with the earthy undertones and stones. Savory. A fitting 40th
