Chappellet
Napa Valley Cabernet Franc


Red bright fruit! M- acid, m body and tannin. Still very young. Give it some time.

Monthly wine group meet up. This month's theme was non-typical reds from Napa. Wines were tasted blind. Always a great time. 👌
This was more red fruit dominant as opposed to the blue and black fruit dominant cab francs I tend to enjoy. Needed to breathe a while, but I got zero green pepper on this. Cherries and cedar on the finish, with a hint of red licorice. Thanks for bringing, José!

I liked this, but I found it a bit too fruit forward. Missed the herbs.

Bright plummy cola and bitter herbs. A bit high octane

Not up to their PH bottling but still pretty damn awesome. Great fruit/earth/acid combo.

We drank this @chappellet_wine over several hours and enjoyed how the nose and flavor evolved, so elegant and complex. Well integrated flavors of several layers. Glad we have more!
