The wine is truly a love letter to the winegrowing potential of Pritchard Hill. The wine was inspired by Bordeaux, and like most left bank Bordeaux, the wine is a blend of predominately Cabernet Sauvignon with remaining amounts other classic Bordeaux blend varieties. The vines grow upon rocky, mountainside vineyards. After harvest and fermentation, the wine was aged for 22 months in 100% new French oak barrels. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional Ratings\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e100Wilfred Wong \u003cbr\u003eThe Chappellet Pritchard Hill Cabernet Sauvignon has always been an impressive wine; the 2021 vintage is out-of-this-world! An elite wine among the world's finest, this wine excels with aromas and flavors of bold black fruits, enticing savory spices, and dramatic graphite notes. Give this wine at least half a dozen years in the cellar before letting the genie out of the bottle. Savor it with a grilled bone-in prime ribeye. (Tasted: December 13, 2024, San Francisco, CA)\u003cbr\u003e99Decanter\u003cbr\u003eSuch 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. Best from 2025; ideally, you'd hold off until near 2030 and enjoy until 2050.\u003cbr\u003e98Robert Parker's Wine Advocate\u003cbr\u003eA blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot, all aged in new French oak, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill appears destined to be another classic. Penetrating aromas of cassis and red berries are joined by hints of violets, dried sage, crushed stones and pencil shavings on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is rich and intensely concentrated, framed by dusty tannins that linger easily on the long, mouthwatering finish.\u003cbr\u003eRating: 98+\u003cbr\u003e98Jeb Dunnuck\u003cbr\u003eThe flagship 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill is based on 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. Dense purple-hued, with incredible aromatics of black and blue fruits, camphor, liquid violets, tobacco, and graphite, it has a remarkable sense of opulence in its aromas and flavors and delivers full-bodied richness, a massive mid-palate, building tannins, and a thrilling finish. It reminds me of an improved 2013. This heavenly Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon will evolve for 30-40 years in cold cellars and is another absolutely sensational wine from this estate. Don't miss it.\u003cbr\u003eRating: 98+\u003cbr\u003e97James Suckling\u003cbr\u003eNotes of crushed dark berries, chocolate black licorice, iodine, bark and graphite. Wide and encompassing on the palate with a full body and ultra-fine, almost weightless tannins. There is a fine, chalky minerality to it with sea shell, iron and cigar box undertones. Beautiful fruit. Firm and polished. Needs time. Try after 2026.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chappellet","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43633064837344,"sku":"113074","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0649\/9713\/0464\/products\/chappellet-cabernet-sauvignon-napa-valley-pritchard-hill-vineyard_1_1bba2405-897e-4c8c-9f1d-36a445d57b6e.jpg?v=1667580629","url":"https:\/\/www.mywineconnection.com\/products\/chappellet-cabernet-sauvignon-napa-valley-pritchard-hill-vineyard-2019-750ml","provider":"My Wine Connection","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
