Looking at the two releases from Chappellet, the 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature is the larger production cuvee and sees 22 months in 50% new French oak. Its deep, inky color is followed by an incredibly pure bouquet of crème de cassis, hints of blue fruits, graphite, and cedar. With gorgeous minerality, full-bodied richness, building tannin and notable purity, it's an incredible wine, as well as a sensational value.

The deep garnet-purple colored 2015 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature delivers mocha, cassis and black soil notes with touches of black cherries, charcoal and fried herbs. Medium to full-bodied, it fills the palate with black berry and earthy flavors, textured by chewy tannins and finishing earthy/savory. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown

Dense, opaque purple. This 2015 effort from Chappellet comes out blazing, with intense aromas of ripe blackberry and sweet cherry mixed with notes of fresh lavender and freesia along with a touch of sweet oak. The texture on the palate is rich and juicy with sweet tannins and a long finish. This wine falls right in line with Chappellet’s long history of producing classic Napa cabernet that is consistent in quality and style vintage to vintage. Drink now and over the next 15+ years.
