A cadmium tungstate crystal boule enriched in $^{116}$Cd to 82% with mass of1868 g was grown by the low-thermal-gradient Czochralski technique. Theisotopic composition of cadmium and the trace contamination of the crystal wereestimated by High Resolution Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass-Spectrometry. Thecrystal scintillators produced from the boule were subjected tocharacterization that included measurements of transmittance and energyresolution. A low background scintillation detector with two $^{116}$CdWO$_4$crystal scintillators (586 g and 589 g) was developed. The detector was runningover 1727 h deep underground at the Gran Sasso National Laboratories of theINFN (Italy), which allowed to estimate the radioactive contamination of theenriched crystal scintillators. The radiopurity of a third $^{116}$CdWO$_4$sample (326 g) was tested with the help of ultra-low background high puritygermanium $\gamma$ detector. Monte Carlo simulations of double $\beta$processes in $^{116}$Cd were used to estimate the sensitivity of an experimentto search for double $\beta$ decay of $^{116}$Cd.
