Chimney Rock 2013 Elevage Red (Stags Leap District)

Country: US / Elevage
Variety: Bordeaux-style Red Blend California
Winery: Chimney Rock / Stags Leap District

This is an austere, elegant study in power and grace, blending 53% Merlot with 33% Cabernet Sauvignon, 9% Petit Verdot and 5% Cabernet Franc. Substantial and tannin-defined as many of its brethren of this vintage, it shows cedar, pencil shavings and a touch of tobacco, more savory than fruit-driven. Drink now through 2023.
