Signature Cabernet Sauvignon 2021 Vintage Overview

2021 OVERVIEW

Structure and purity define the Chappellet Signature Cabernet Sauvignon 2021, a deeply colored mountain red packed with vivid cassis, blackberry and blue fruit layered over graphite, tobacco, and a touch of dark chocolate. The palate is powerful yet polished, with concentrated fruit, firm but refined tannins, and a long, herbal-spiced finish that promises real complexity as it ages. This vintage shows both intensity and finesse, making it compelling now with air but clearly built for the cellar.

About Signature Cabernet Sauvignon

Chappellet’s Signature Cabernet Sauvignon is the estate’s flagship Bordeaux-style red from the rocky, high-elevation slopes of Pritchard Hill in Napa Valley, typically blending predominantly Cabernet Sauvignon with Petit Verdot, Malbec, and Merlot. Known for its luxuriously dark, concentrated profile and polished tannins, it regularly shows layers of cassis, black cherry, dark plum, chocolate, espresso, and mountain herb notes framed by French oak spice, with the structure and depth to age gracefully for a decade or more.
