Community Tasting Note

The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine:

Wednesday, December 7, 2022 - Retail $200? The very first vintage of Chimney Rock. Clearly the color has faded a bit but the nose is stunning. While most of the fruit has faded there is some dark fruit but you have to search for it behind the tobacco, an oaky component, and a slight herbal quality (rosemary?). It is also a bit meaty with a leathery aspect; all quite compelling. Whoa. The palate is elegant, tart, leathery, and layered. For a forty year old wine? Holy cow. This is gangbusters.
