Chappellet Winery is one of Napa Valley’s pioneering mountain estates, founded in 1967 by Donn and Molly Chappellet. Nestled high on the rocky slopes of Pritchard Hill above Lake Hennessey, the winery quickly became known for Cabernet Sauvignon grown at altitude—wines with structure, depth, and longevity.
The ‘Signature’ Cabernet Sauvignon is the estate’s flagbearer, a dark and generous wine with plenty of structure, but the tannins are polished enough that it drinks well young while still having the bones to age beautifully.
What the critics say:
"Excellent quality, fresh and full of personality. Black cherry, sandalwood, rose bud, liquorice root, crayon, graphite, totally delicious. Love the expansion through the palate and the juicy finish, this is concentrated and powerful with silky tannins, super enjoyable. Philip Titus winemaker."
"Highly perfumed and scented with some pepper spice, minty menthol aspects, damsons, cherries and blackcurrants. Floral accents too. Grippy in the best way, this captures your attention and doesn't let it go. Amazing minerality - the salty wet stones linger on the palate with a mineral, saline aspect alongside the blackcurrants and plums. Still quite compact and a touch strict in terms of tannins and spice - vanilla, chocolate and lots of oak but this will settle. Great quality. Owners the Chappellet family with director David Frankie and winemaker Philip Titus. 2% Merlot completes the blend."
