Spottswoode 2021 Lyndenhurst Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley
95 Points
Limited Release from Spottswoode, one of California's Best Cabernet Producers.
95 Points James Suckling: "A juicy red with black currants and balsamic. Bark and mushroom. Iodine, too. Medium body, creamy texture that tightens at the end. An energy and firmness in the finish but remains so attractive. Savory. Hard not to drink now. So do, but will also age nicely. "
94 Points Jeb Dunnuck: "The second wine of this incredible estate, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Lyndenhurst reveals a deep purple hue as well as a great nose of assorted currants, black cherries, tobacco, and lead pencil. It's beautifully concentrated, has medium to full-bodied richness, and ripe tannins, all making for an undeniably delicious, classic, balanced Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon to drink over the coming 10-15 years. "
93 Points Vinous: "The 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Lyndenhurst is a huge overachiever. Rich and ample in feel, the 2021 packs a serious punch. Dark-toned fruit, spice, leather, tobacco, menthol and dried herbs fill out the layers and carry through to the succulent finish. The Lyndenhurst is especially fine in 2021. This saw 45-50% new oak."
Like every top Château in Bordeaux, the great Spottswoode Estate also has a second label: Lyndenhurst. The allure is that you get to taste a blueprint of the flagship bottling earlier, and in a very approachable fashion. The Lyndenhurst Cabernet Sauvignon enjoys the same pedigree as Spottswoode (which has earned a perfect 100 points score for their last two vintages) and shares characteristics easily recognizable to those already familiar with the essence of the Spottswoode estate.
Aged for 21 months in French oak barrels, the 2020 Lyndenhurst is an energetic Napa Valley Cabernet with a bright and impactful first impression imparting flavors of black and red cherries. Medium-bodied with well-integrated, powdery tannins. Notes of blackberry bramble, raspberry, and red currant mingle with cocoa, dried herbs, and crushed graphite. Great acidity. Well balanced and structured, this wine can be enjoyed upon release, and can also be cellared and enjoyed in the years to come.
