James sits down with Chairman Cyril Chappellet and winemaker Philip Corallo-Titus to talk about the Napa Valley winery’s 2019 vintage. "It's like two great vintages back to back," Philip says in comparing 2019 and 2018. "The '18s were just very forward, big, structural wines and were just heralded as this great vintage, and it is. And then the '19 came along, and my opinion is that ... it's like a 'Do you like John Lennon or Paul McCartney?' kind of thing. And I've always been a little bit of a fan of this '19 vintage because of this real focus that it has, and there's just a depth and concentration and center of gravity, but not on a big scale of tannins."
