title: Chimney Rock 2000 Fumé Blanc (Napa Valley)
description: Strange aromas of chewing gum, silly putty, green beans and turnip make for an unconventional bouquet. The palate is rather vegetal and dilute, with hints of sweet gum and pepper. The finish is light and simple, with just a smidgen of grapefruit. While hard to peg, there's an off quality to this wine that holds it back.
