Had this 6 mos ago at Tasting, liked it, bought several bottles for cellar. Blend of Cab Sauv, Cab Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot & Malbec, made by 30 year Chappellet winemaker Phillip Titus. Deep Ruby, purple edges, youthful aromas of black fruit, spices and flinty notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black cherry with some vanilla and tobacco and herbal floral notes. Vivid acidity & firm tight tannins with long finish ending with a youthful character, aging well should benefit from bottle aging. — 5 years ago

If you've had the same winemaker for over 25 years he must be doing something right. Cheers to Phillip Corallo-Titus! — 8 years ago

Wow... gotta love Titus. Took about 2 hours to fully open up. Very dark, ripe juicy blackberry and currant fruits, herbs and spicy, big lush and very lingering finish. Did this with Cigars but this is a wine that I want with a good steak. I have found a new love in Petit Verdot! — 8 years ago

500 Chevaux is an automobile racing term; French for “500 horsepower.” Nellcôte founder and vintner Tyler Olbres is an avid car-racing fan, and has himself driven in the Monaco Rallye for Classic Cars. This wine is a high-horsepower Cabernet, meant to be sleek, powerful, and fully able to go the distance.
LAST BOTTLE Notes,

Nellcote was an uber-pricey luxury Cab that recently closed its doors, and, after extensive tasting through all the brilliant, incredibly fine-tuned Cabernets early last year, that none other than Phillip Titus (yep, THAT Phillip Titus, the legend behind CHAPPELLET and others!) made,

Blend of Cab Sauv (Dominant), Cab Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot & Malbec, crested by 30 year Chappellet veteran winemaker Phillip Titus. Tasted this at an event, wine displaying youthful aromas of black fruit, spices and flinty notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black cherry with some vanilla and cacao adding in some herbal floral notes. Vivid acidity & firm tight tannins with lingering finish ending with a youthful character should bode well for some bottle aging. Tasting Sample. — 6 years ago

Just put your brain in neutral and enjoy this full throttled monster. When I can't get my hands on the estate Cab, this is my fall back. — 9 years ago

2013 Malbec from Chappellet family. Always impressed with this mountain grown Malbec from Phillip Titus. Features Carissa's Dragon series art work on the label. Aromas of Dark fruit & Cherries with flavor of Dark Roast coffee, chocolate and rich tannins on the palate and finish. Yum!! — 9 years ago
