| Description: | Chalk Hill's Estate is a compendium of unique microclimates, exposures and soil types. They are fortunate to be able to make everything from aromatic Sauvignon Blanc to big, bold Syrah. Nowhere is this ideal situation more evident than in their Estate Red, which is just that - the best blend of the red wines made from the estate. Each variety is perfectly matched to the vineyard site. The blend will also vary from year to year, as the vineyard yields and fruit quality depend greatly on the weather during springtime bloom and set, and during harvest. Cabernet and Malbec were the stars in 2021, and form the base of this Estate Red. Grapes grown on the rocky slopes of their Estate West vineyard make up the balance of the blend. Jeb Dunnuck 91 Points - "Inky black/purple in hue, the 2021 Estate Red is 54% Cabernet Sauvignon, 23% Malbec, 21% Petit Verdot, and the rest Syrah. The nose slowly reveals notes of tarry earth, black plum compote, and forest herbs. Full-bodied and ripe, it has a plush texture, a good, weightless feel, and a modest but solid finish. It's going to drink well over the next several years." |
