Chappellet Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill 1997

This deep ruby Cabernet Sauvignon opens with rich aromas of blackberry, black cherry, and dark cassis, layered with hints of toasted French oak, roasted coffee, anise, and sweet tobacco. On the palate, it delivers bold ripe fruit and spice framed by velvety, mouthfilling tannins and a long, luxurious finish. Powerful yet seamless, this wine is delicious now and will continue to gain complexity with time in the cellar.
