Description
Chappellet Cabernet Sauvignon 1997Pritchard Hill
Bottle (8)
Provenance: Property of a Los Angeles gentleman. Almost all wines were purchased winery-direct and sent directly to the client's professional wine storage facility where they have remained for decades. Many wines have been sampled from this cellar and all have been in spectacular condition.
"The 1997 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill (a blend of 87% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot, and 4% Cabernet Franc) is the finest wine to emerge from Chappellet since the Philip Togni era (remember the exquisite 1969 Cabernet Sauvignon Togni fashioned?). A dark saturated blue/purple color is followed by tight aromatics offering up scents of blueberries, minerals, cassis, and subtle toast. It is medium to full-bodied and elegant, with sweet tannin as well as a tightly-knit, convincing finish. This wine appears to have a promising future." (92pts Robert Parker, Wine Advocate #141, June 2002)
