Signature is Chappellet's flagship Cabernet, named for the year, 1980, when Donn Chappellet signed the bottle. It has been made every year since 1984 from the estate's best lots on Pritchard Hill.

Donn and Molly Chappellet came to Napa in 1967, and Cyril and Dominic Chappellet run the family winery today. Phillip Corallo-Titus directs winemaking. The 2019 is 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petit Verdot, 8% Malbec and 3% Merlot, grown on Pritchard Hill's dry, rocky hillside soils and aged in French oak. It's 14.5% alcohol.

The winery describes a dark, concentrated wine with cassis, dark cherry, plum, chocolate and baking spice, supple tannins and a finish of espresso, cedar and anise.

Jeb Dunnuck called it a candidate for the best Napa Cabernet under $100. Buy it over Silver Oak if you want a mountain wine with more structure.

Decant it for an hour and serve it around 62 to 64°F. It drinks well now and should keep into the mid-2030s.

Awards

96 Decanter
"heady violets, pure blue fruit complemented by kirsch"

95 James Suckling
"This is very complex, with blackcurrants, tobacco and cedar. Some sandalwood and terra-cotta, too. Medium-to full-bodied with ultra-fine tannins that are creamy-textured and so long and pure. Attractive and complex. 77% cabernet sauvignon with petit verdot, malbec and merlot. So good now to drink, but will age beautifully. Drink or hold."

94 Jeb Dunnuck
"Always a smoking value that readers shouldn't miss, the 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature sports a dense purple color to go with beautiful cassis and blueberry-like fruits as well as bouquet garni, spice, and obvious, rocky mineral-like aromas and flavors. Rich and medium to full-bodied, with notable structure and good acidity, it's going to keep for two decades in cold cellars. It's a candidate for the best Napa Cabernet under $100. Best After 2022"

93 Robert Parker's Wine Advocate
"The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon Signature is a blend of 77% Cabernet Sauvignon, 12% Petit Verdot, 8% Malbec and 3% Merlot. Deep garnet-purple colored, it leaps with open-knit notes of warm cassis and plum preserves, plus hints of tobacco leaf, bouquet garni and cedar chest. The medium to full-bodied palate is firm and crunchy with bags of bright fruit and a grainy texture, finishing lifted."
