The wine has a light greenish tint and offers a pleasing nose of peaches, cantaloupes and flowers.  The palate follows suit, with stone fruit and melons and an easy acidity. The wine finishes sweet but crisp. — 10 hours ago

Great intensity but tight and not giving much at the moment. Focused, lemony, mineral, steel. Structured and incredibly concentrated on the palate. Tremendous balance and energy. Hold and wait in excitement! — 7 days ago

Saturday night and I have opened the 2016 Protea Chenin Blanc from South Africa, the Swartland. 100% Chenin Blanc.

On the nose I am getting honeydew melon, lime, white peach, pear, honey, apple blossom and mandarin orange.

On the palate there is tangy citrus notes, stone fruit, lime, lemon, yellow apple, melon, white peach, apricot and mandarin orange.

This wine is light to medium bodied yhat is well balanced with medium + to high acidity that leads to a fresh crisp long finish. I hope everyone is having a great weekend. Please stay safe and continued great weekend. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂 — 18 days ago

Great intensity with beautiful aromatics and a slight hint of used wood. The texture, structure, and balance were sublime. Ever so slight nail polish thing going on but it added to the character. Great long finish — 4 days ago

Last of my own stock of Paul Gregutt’s old vine Chenin blanc from Washington state. The venture is now defunct, alas. Pale yellow white, excellent clarity. Floral and funk notes in nose. Honey peach-apricot and cantaloupe flavors, slight skin astringency in finish, lemony aftertaste with a tinge of cantaloupe-apricot. Great length of flavors, good acidity but lacks a bit of needed crispness. And in the future, please help support your local old vine Chenin blanc producer. The world deserves more quality wines like this. — 17 days ago
