Reviews & Scores
A blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Cabernet Franc, and the last wine made by Pam Starr at Rombauer Vineyards, the 1995 offers worthy competition to the magnificent 1994, which was more highly heralded. A touch of spring flowers, intermixed with crème de cassis, licorice, lead-pencil shavings and cedar, are all present in this wine of great intensity and full-bodied power, but with an elegance and finesse that, again, similarly suggests a Château Margaux made in St. Helena. This beautiful wine should continue to drink well for another 25 years.

Spottswoode’s 1995 Cabernet Sauvignon is a fabulous choice for drinking now and over the next handful of years. Sensual and intensely perfumed, but with plenty of underlying grip, the 1995 is super-expressive today. Sweet red cherry, plum, hard candy, mint and crushed flowers are all fused together. Silky and soft contours add to the wine’s considerable appeal. The 1995 is a decidedly ripe, open-knit, yet also deceptively mid-weight Cabernet from Spottswoode that should continue to age gracefully on its impeccable balance.

A complex web of mature currant, cedar, mocha and plum are ripe and vibrant, with a hint of wild berry jam peeking through on the finish. Impressive for its balance and integration of tannins, which are supple.
