1997 Chappellet Signature

[winoweenie]

Always one of the benchmark cabs(IMHO) from one of Napas' oldest and best vineyards. This offering is no exception. Deep brite ruby. Aromatic nose loaded with red fruits, flowers, spice and a tad of saddle leather. Smooth entry, solid center and a long 4+lapper finish. Still has enough soft tannins to improve another 2-4 and will hold another 10-15. What Napa cabs are supposed to morph into. 92/94. 26 by the box. 14.5% alc.
