The 2006 Furth boasts an inky/purple color as well as a big, sweet bouquet of blackberry liqueur, licorice, and charcoal. With sweet tannins, medium to full body, but not quite the complexity and elegance of the Estate cuvee, the big, bold Furth is clearly meant to be more concentrated. Anticipated maturity: now-2025. This may be the finest portfolio of Chalk Hill wines I have yet tasted. All are super-impressive with beautiful purity, balance, texture, and complexity. There are just under 200 cases of one of the rarest dry white wines readers will find in California. Barrel samples of the 2008 Estate Red and Syrah Estate look nearly as impressive as the 2007s.Tel.
