Chappellet Cabernet Sauvignon, 2016.

A gift from Stacy! Thank you!

Lauren says, “Dark garnet color. Aroma of cherries, blackberry jam, and vanilla. Full bodied. Nice tannins with slight acidity. Flavor of baking spices and ripe purple fruit. Very smooth and easy to drink. Something unique about it that I like. Long finish. Definitely the kind of cab I like- rich and fruity. 9/10.”

Zach says, “Ink purple in the glass. Nose is very complex, but illusive. Notes of pencil shavings and blackberry. Very balanced on the palate. Full bodied mouthfeel. Delightfully acidic with rich, lively tannins to match. Finish is lasting, fruity, pleasant, and complex. 9/10”
