JEB DUNNUCK 98+ POINTS - "The flagship 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill is based on 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot. Dense purple-hued, with incredible aromatics of black and blue fruits, camphor, liquid violets, tobacco, and graphite, it has a remarkable sense of opulence in its aromas and flavors and delivers full-bodied richness, a massive mid-palate, building tannins, and a thrilling finish. It reminds me of an improved 2013. This heavenly Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon will evolve for 30-40 years in cold cellars and is another absolutely sensational wine from this estate. Don't miss it."
ROBERT PARKER'S WINE ADVOCATE 98+ POINTS - "The pioneering Pritchard Hill winery, with vineyards established in 1964 and the winery built in 1968, Chappellet was on its own for years, perched at up to 1,800 feet above sea level. The property encompasses two 320-acre parcels, with the striking winery on the original Pritchard farm parcel, yet only 104 acres have been developed as vineyards. The vineyards have been certified organic since 2012, while the winery's solar panels offset 100% of the winery's electric bill."
"A blend of 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot, all aged in new French oak, the 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon Pritchard Hill appears destined to be another classic. Penetrating aromas of cassis and red berries are joined by hints of violets, dried sage, crushed stones and pencil shavings on the nose, while the full-bodied palate is rich and intensely concentrated, framed by dusty tannins that linger easily on the long, mouthwatering finish."
