Robert Parker on Spottswoode!
“Spottswoode is one of Napa’s most well-known landmarks… When the history of Napa’s great vineyards is written, the 40-acre Spottswoode vineyard, tucked behind the quaint town of St. Helena, will be counted among the finest grand cru vineyards of the region. These wines have always been good, but over the last decade, the quality has soared, no doubt because of a much more strict selection in the vineyard as well as in the winery.” Find out what else renowned wine critic Robert Parker has to say about Spottswoode’s wines.
Auction Napa Valley, June 2010
