Winemaker Notes
Blended from the traditional Bordeaux varietals, including our own coveted grapes, the Chappellet Mountain Cuvée Proprietor’s Blend builds on our more than five decades of experience crafting great mountain-grown wines. Each grape variety in the cuvée contributes nuances that complement each other. The result is a complex array of aromas and flavors that deliver pure pleasure in a glass. Made for more near-term enjoyment, this is the wine to choose when you’re looking for vivid, mouthfilling fruit flavors.
This beautifully aromatic wine leaps from the glass with effusive aromas of dark cherry, blackberry and plum, as well as French oak-inspired hints of clove, cardamom and cedar and notions of black pepper and fresh herbs. On the richly textured palate, lush ripe berry layers echo the aromas, with fine-grained tannins framing the luxurious flavors as they glide to a lingering dark chocolate and anise finish.
