2013 Chimney Rock Elevage

Estate: Chimney Rock

Region: Stags Leap District, Napa Valley, California, United States of America



Tasting Note:August 16, 2016

Ruby red with a dark core that coats the glass. Tight dark red cherries on the nose with purple floral notes, herbs and a little stinky too. Extracted with furry heavy tannins (8/10). Full bodied with dark cherries, dark cocoa, velvety and thick. Solid oak influence, with dark spices. Balanced acidity but needs time to open up. Long finish.
