Chappellet Pritchard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon, Napa Valley, 2021 USA Château Chasse-Spleen Botrytised Welschriesling and Weissburgunder grapesSuch an attractive and alluring bouquet of violet florals, blue fruit aromatics, sagebrush, bay laurel, and toasty cedarwood. Medium to full bodied with a wonderfully rich fruit forward palate of succulent blackberry, plums, and black cherry, nuanced by an inviting minerality with an ironstone quality laced by dried sage. The tannins are palate etching and crisp and resolve with a fineness that leaves an overall impression of total harmony. 99 Pts
