Winemaker's Notes: "My notes essentially read the same every year, even though the bottlings are non-vintage and I taste the most recent releases. Consistency and greatness are the norm at this Rutherglen winery. The average age is 7-10 years for the regular cuvees, about 70 years for the grand cuvees, and the ancient rare cuvees date back to soleras from 1890. It is redundant to keep repeating the same tasting notes, so readers will have to take my word for it ... this is one of the world’s most remarkable dessert wines, and is worth every effort to latch on to a half bottle or so." - Wine Advocate

My Notes:

About Chambers Rosewood: The Chambers winery has been family owned since its establishment in 1858. The winemaking duties and care of the “old material” have been handed down from father to son through five generations and for the last 40 years has rested with Bill Chambers.
