Spottswoode Cabernet 2005
"Chewy and rustic, with plenty of smoky oak, lead pencil and graphite evident in the aroma. The currant, mineral, sage and cedary notes are tight and concentrated, firming up on the finish where the tannins are more evident." Score range: WS 92-94 –JL

Staglin Cabernet 2006 Magnum
Rich, focused, supple, plush and layered, showing amazing purity of flavor, with tiers of black currant, black cherry, mineral, sage, anise and cedar. Yet for all its flavor, it's the seductive textural fleshiness that's perhaps most striking. Best from 2010 through 2019. 3,000 cases made. –JL 96 Points Spectator
