We are overjoyed to introduce Beth Novak Milliken and Lindy Novak of Spottswoode Estate located in St. Helena California on this very special holiday edition of CellarPassTV. 

A legacy of love is what best describes Spottswoode. The historic estate is distinguished by the pre-prohibition Victorian home that graces the Spottswoode Estate wine label today has a long and colorful history dating back to 1882.  The estate was acquired by Mary and Jack Novak in 1972 with a dream… which was carried on by Mary and her daughters.

We’ll meet the wonderful Novak women behind Spottswoode and chat about favorite holiday traditions, recipes and of course their incredible wines.

Beth Novak Milliken, President of Spottswoode
Moving to Napa Valley with her parents in 1972, Beth grew up surrounded by the vineyards. Like her four siblings, Beth’s chores included tasks like suckering the vines and cleaning out the emitters. While her youth in Napa Valley may have planted the seed for her future, ironically, it was a year spent studying abroad in Europe that made her begin thinking about a career in wine.

Lindy Novak, Spottswoode Marketing Ambassador
The eldest of the five Novak children, Lindy was 15 when she moved to Napa Valley with her family. A part of the emerging Napa Valley wine community, Lindy’s friends included the children of the Shafers and Chappellets, and she occasionally babysat the Duckhorn and Beckstoffer children. Summers were spent helping out around the Spottswoode Estate with her siblings, playing tennis, and going to concerts at the Mondavi Winery.
