Product Description
JS97 "This is the real deal for Napa Cab! Love the nose of currants, chocolate, licorice, and dried flowers. Wow, this is class. Full and super refined, with ultra-fine tannins and a long, long finish. Absolutely fabulous, but give this two or three years of bottle age before giving it a try." JS Apr 2011
RP95 "The medium to deep garnet colored 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill Estate Vineyard, a blend of 76% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petit Verdot, 9% Merlot and 3% Malbec, gives intense scents of wild blueberries, black cherries and warm black currants with touches of cigar box, black olives and menthol. Full-bodied, rich and spicy in the mouth, it has wonderfully ripe, plush tannins, with a lively backbone carrying the concentrated flavors to a long finish." LPB for WA May 2018
"Brilliant wines have emerged from this showcase estate high on Pritchard Hill, which is producing some of the most exciting Cabernets coming out of Napa. As for my estimated aging curves, readers should keep in mind that the 1969 Chappellet made by Philip Togni, at age 40, remains a remarkably young, vibrant wine!" RP 2009
