ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE 93 POINTS - "Chappellet's 2023s have turned out predictably excellent. This historic producer, based on Pritchard Hill (and owner of a trademark on that word pair), has been at the top of its game the past several vintages. CEO Cyril Chappellet, VP of Winemaking Philip Corallo-Titus and Winemaker Ry Richards should be commended for their collective commitment to quality."
"Another excellent wine slated for release in early 2026, Chappellet's 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature combines hints of scorched oak and mocha with mixed red and black cherries, plus underlying cassis fruit. Sourced from various mountain sites in Napa Valley, it's medium- to full-bodied, richly textured and concentrated, with a long, velvety finish."
JEB DUNNUCK 92 POINTS - "Dense purple-hued, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature offers up cassis, ripe blue fruits, graphite, scorched earth, and leafy tobacco, with a Pauillac-like lead pencil character that develops as the wine sits in the glass. It's medium to full-bodied and concentrated on the palate, with ripe tannins and nicely integrated acidity. Very much in the style of the vintage, it should have 15-20 years of overall longevity. Drink 2025-2045."
