Opened unexpectedly along with the same wine from the 2018 vintage. The 2015 showed well with nice layers of dark fruit, licorice and tar. We did not give it sufficient time to really show its stuff as we drank it within the first 40 minutes. As with most Chappellet signature cabs, this is a wine you can count on as a good value and consistent quality.

This was really good. Middle of the fairway classic cab. Drank with Chris in Bayfield over 2.5 hours with minimal decant. Great flavors, not too tannic and long finish. My tongue wasn't exhausted at the end. Classic. Why aren't I scoring this higher?

Opaque purple color, Soft and round. A nice enough cab but a bit one dimensional at this point. Past it’s peak
