99 RP "The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon is a glorious example of elegance combined with power, purity and richness. A compelling wine in all senses, it reveals a haunting bouquet of acacia flowers, raspberries, blueberries, black currants, graphite and pen ink. The sweetness of the tannins and medium to full-bodied, extraordinarily poised and breathtaking mouthfeel that builds incrementally is all about nobility and balance. It is an honor to taste this special wine . . . . As I have always said, if there is a Chateau Margaux to be found in Napa Valley, it is Beth and Mary Novakâs iconic Spottswoode winery, situated on the back streets of St. Helena." 99 RP "The 2002 Cabernet Sauvignon is a glorious example of elegance combined with power, purity and richness.
