Dieser Cabernet Sauvignon ist der begehrteste Wein im Portfolio von Chappellet Vineyard und wird nur in limitierter Auflage hergestellt. Er verkörpert die elegante Kraft und Komplexität des Pritchard-Hill-Weinbaus. Wie die großen Bordeaux-Weine, die Donn Chappellet als erstes inspiriert haben, wird dieser Wein durch den Verschnitt von Cabernet Sauvignon mit anderen klassischen Bordeaux-Rebsorten hergestellt.
An extremely concentrated and well-structured wine, it offers flinty, toasty, tarry aromas, dark chocolate, black currant and espresso flavors on a thick blanket of fine-grained tannins that give a very firm mouthfeel. The wine has the depth and structure to age and improve for decades, as well as the track record to prove it. Wine Enthusiast
A blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill is another wonderfully evocative triumph from this family-owned Pitchard Hill pioneer. Deep garnet-purple colored, it storms out of the glass with profound scents of crème de cassis, blackberry preserves, licorice and mulberries, plus hints of unsmoked cigars, wild sage and tar. The medium to full-bodied palate delivers fantastic intensity and great poise, offering fine-grained, ripe tannins and bold freshness, finishing long and mineral laced. Robert Parker
