TASTING NOTES
  • 95/100 [Vintage 2018] by Edward Ragg, MW from Robert Parker Wine Advocate
    Chapter & Verse’s 2018 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon has a very deep garnet appearance with just a touch of orange to the rim. On the nose, there are predominantly youthful aromas of varietally true cassis, bramble, black cherry and mulberry fruit with sweet and savory scented pyrazine (mint, fresh peas, green bell pepper, tomato vine) complemented by new oak notes of toast, clove, smoke and some vanilla. There is just a touch of tertiary development with a hint of leather appearing. On the palate, it is very full-bodied with abundant, ripe, coating and fine-grained tannins, lifting acidity and well-integrated 15.5% alcohol. This robust structure is interknit with concentrated dark fruit complemented by those complex pyrazine and new oak notes. Still considerably youthful on the palate and with long length, this is an especially strong vintage of the Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon from Chapter & Verse, which is all the more commendable, given the challenging conditions in Huailai in 2018 (with heavy summer rains during a very warm vintage and where fungal disease pressure was accordingly high). This wine has a great life ahead of it, although it is approachable now.
  • 94/100 [Vintage 2018] by James Suckling
    Graphite, currants, pencil lead and berries. Medium-bodied, linear and nuanced for cabernet, with chalky tannins and a long, elegant finish. Lovely fluidity here. Already drinkable, but can hold.
  • 94/100 [Vintage 2017] by Edward Ragg, MW from Robert Parker Wine Advocate
    With its very deep purple appearance, the 2017 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon has lifted cassis, black cherry and bramble fruit complemented by distinct new oak notes of vanilla, clove, toast and smoke that integrate well with the bright, ripe fruit. Full-bodied, with especially ripe coating and chewy tannins, marked acidity and well-integrated high alcohol, there is a lovely, fleshy core of fruit in evidence here. Although young, this is harmonious enough and with overt enough fruit to be approached already. But the 2017 Reserve Cabernet has the overall long length, harmony and finesse of a wine that will age very well—through at least 2027. A very impressive Huailai Cabernet.
