2018 Chappellet Mountain Estates Hideaway Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley

(95 Points)    ------    (Vinous)

The Cabernet Sauvignon Hideaway is once again terrific in 2018. Grilled herbs, iron, dried flowers, red fruit and cedar give the 2018 striking layers of savory intensity. This mid-weight, structured Cabernet delivers the goods. The Hideaway emerges from a parcel that is closer to Continuum than it is to the core holdings near and around the winery. It is a striking contrast to Chappellet's flagship Pritchard Hill Cabernet. (AG)    Review Date: 01/2021
