We are very proud of this wine and the reputation that it has earned among the world’s top Cabernet Sauvignons.

As it opens up, fascinating layers of sandalwood and cardamom emerge, as well as hints of vanilla bean, nutmeg, dark chocolate and anise. On the impeccably balanced palate, complex flavors of ripe dark berries and spice dominate, framed by silky, polished tannins that carry the flavors to a long, epic finish.\" -\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ci\u003eChappellet Winery\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\n\u003ch4 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eRatings \u0026amp; Reviews\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98-100 Points - Robert Parker's Wine Advocate:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The incredible quality of Chappellet's striking 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill is presaged on the nose by its lovely cool mint and sage notes, which seamlessly join with mixed red and black cherries and violets. It's full-bodied but wonderfully supple, with a substantial but fine-knit structure and a long, silky-textured finish.\" -Joe Czerwinski (Jun 2025)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e100 Points - Jeb Dunnuck:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"The flagship release here, the 2023 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill sports a saturated purple hue and absolutely heavenly aromatics of crème de cassis, liquid violets, graphite, crushed stone, and a Pauillac-like character that builds with time in the glass. Based on 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot, it's full-bodied, has a deep, concentrated mouthfeel, ultra-fine tannins, and a great, great finish. This is magical stuff that offers pleasure even today given its purity, balance, and finesse, but I'd be shocked if it didn't keep for 50 years or more. Drink 2025-2075.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e99 Points - Decanter:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Now this is one beautiful, full-bodied, full-framed Napa Cabernet from an iconic producer. The wine opens with blue fruit and beautifully fine, expressive French oak notes – perfectly toasted and exuding espresso, dark chocolate, and molasses – before blackberry fruit builds with intensity and segues seamlessly into a ripe, pure-fruited palate. This powerful wine overflows with ripe fruit and lavish Indian and Asian spices, and candied violets, while powerful tannin is perfectly integrated – forming a seamless tapestry of dark berry fruit-and-brown-spice through the finish. Tasted over three days, it just gets better and better. One note of warning: The bottle itself is a little heavy, so instead of recycling it, consider adding it to your free weight collection. Drinking Window: 2026-2050.\" -Jonathan Cristaldi (Mar 2026)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e98 Points - James Suckling:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"Pure, focused, linear, elegant, muscular but sleek. Generous in blueberries, dried cherries, cocoa, graphite and cedar nuances. All in balance, offering a firm but velvety structure around deep, gorgeous spices. Delicious already but great for aging. Best from 2034.
