Donn Chappellet signature cab! 2018. Napa Valley St Helena. Huge dark berry palette. Loads of cocoa and spice. Somewhat tart. Very dry finish. FANTASTIC WINE. Big, bold, cab! Need moisture now. Who drank my water? Must be the 14.5% abv.

Solid cab. Nothing really stands out, but drinkable. Big oak notes.

lush, cassis, clove, tobacco, and fine grained tannins. Big but very smooth. Dry and silky.

Day 330 of shelter-in-place. Older vintages already consumed, so I am opening the 2018. It is fine, balanced, enough tannins and fruit to be interesting.
