2018 CHABOT VINEYARD
CABERNET SAUVIGNON
NAPA VALLEY ST. HELENA
92 POINTS
– “Lots of rich black-cherry and blackcurrant aromas with milk chocolate, wet leaves and sandalwood. It’s full-bodied with firm, velvety tannins. Rich and broad with a warm finish. Better from 2023.”
CHABOT VINEYARD
Chabot Vineyard lies east of the Silverado Trail, just north of the road that leads up Howell Mountain to Bancroft Ranch and Steinhauer Ranch. The chunks of shiny obsidian heavily strewn through its soil reflect the locale, known as “Glass Mountain.” An underlying layer of pumice and bedrock ensures excellent drainage. The inky, highly structured, deeply flavored Cabernet from this vineyard was the first that Beringer Vineyards elected to bottle as a Private Reserve, in 1977, and it continues to be a frequent component of contemporary vintages of Private Reserve. Chabot Cabernet consistently has finely knit tannins, and layers of black currant with hints of mint and cedar. The 2018 Chabot aged 21 months in French oak barrels. Careful attention is paid to vineyard blocks, which are kept separate and vinified with a goal of extracting maximum flavor.
