Chappellet Chardonnay Grower Collection Calesa Vineyard (Petaluma Gap)
Blending tropical fruit, vanilla bean, flowers, lemon peel and orange with lifting acidity works here in this open, built for youthful drinking wine. 3,007 Views Tasted Nov 15, 2019 |
2016
Chappellet Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill Estate Vineyard (Napa Valley)
Luscious, ripe, rich, fat, dense and full-bodied, the showy wine pops with layers of sweet, juicy, ripe, black and blue fruit, smoke, vanilla, licorice, and a flowery background note. If you like upfront, exuberant fruit, you can enjoy this young. Else, wait 5 years for everything to calm down and fall into place. 5,553 Views Tasted Jan 12, 2020 |

Chappellet Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)

2013
Chappellet Mountain Cuvée (Napa Valley)

2009
Chappellet Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill Estate Vineyard (Napa Valley)
This is a great example of California Cabernet that pairs ample layers of super, ripe berries with power, concentration and oak, yet does not come close to being over the top. Everything is in balance in this outstanding wine. 5,671 Views Tasted Nov 16, 2013Licorice, smoke, truffles, blackberries and earthy scents were in abundance with little effort. On the palate, the wine is soft, polished, round, lush and fresh, with a long, expansive, chocolate covered dark berry finish. 4,553 Views Tasted Oct 23, 2012 |

Chappellet Cabernet Sauvignon (Napa Valley)
There is very little left in the tank here. And that small tank is nearly on empty. The cedar, tobacco, herb and earthy nose is better than the smidgeon of fruit remaining on the palate. And this bottle was perfectly stored. Nothing lives forever. 3,818 Views Tasted Mar 29, 2021 |
