  April 8, 2014 - Chicago Rotating Dinner Series - Williams Selyem 10 Year Retrospective (Perrenial Virant, Chicago): Very medicinal nose – like an old time pharmacy. Chinato/spiced wine character with lots of dried herbs over the dried and cooked red fruits.
  
  Sweet and soft impression on the palate with black fruits, herbal tea and old fashioned cough medicine. This was a controversial wine on the night with some thought it corked or faulty (I had initially considered corked, but thought it not the case once the herbal elements started to shine and with none of the telltale signs of TCA for my palate). The least Pinot like of these wines, but a very unique wine that reminds me of a delicate amaro. As an interesting wine, I really loved this, as a Pinot Noir I could see one being disappointed. 92+
