Tasting Notes
Another product of the phenomenal 2013 vintage, this is quite simply an incredible Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon, offering a wine made with the same care and intention as our Spottswoode Cabernet. Made predominantly from our own estate grapes, the Lyndenhurst offers another compelling expression of our famed Spottswoode Estate Vineyard.
This wine was made using 73% fruit from our own estate as well as grapes carefully selected from a handful of conscientious growers who share our mindful and quality-focused approach to farming. This exceptional and highly regarded wine has the depth and complexity to age gracefully—it is a bright and beautifully balanced Napa Valley Cabernet with abundant youthful appeal.

Third Party Reviews
Fantastic aromas of blueberry, blackberry, violets, black licorice and stones. Full-bodied, firm, silky, and fresh. Very long and balanced. Beautiful tannins. All in harmony. Drink in 2019. Score 96, James Suckling, January 2016
The 2013 Spottswoode “Lyndenhurst” Cabernet Sauvignon is a wine of special merit. Why? While some folks may perceive this to be merely the winery’s second label, this wine is much more than that. I see it as a wine made with the same care, attention, and goals that have made Spottswoode one of the Napa Valley’s top names. Lyndenhurst is a testament to the vineyards and the purity of their grapes. This wine shows a great purity of flavors—black fruits, dried herbs, and pleasing earthiness. Drinks well now and will improve over the next half dozen years. Score 93, Wilfred Wong, www.wine.com, Oct 2016
