Figs and ripe sweet fruit on the nose, with hints of smoked meat, like jerky, and deep rose and candied hibiscus nestled deep. Medium bodied, with quick, nice legs, with a floral palate, smooth and lithe, with silky acidity just starting to soften, vegetal notes, prominent florals more than defineable red fruit, and silky tannins that lead to a dry, lingering but still floral and fresh finish. Maybe even a hit of menthol showing at the end. — 2 years ago

Vibrant, juicy, so fresh, alive!
Green apples, green grass, a hint of green apricot, some lemongrass. Highly enticing. Not flint like Sancerre, no exotic canned fruit like NZ. Fresh, green, grassy.
On the palate this has a round, slightly creamy mouthfeel but remains focused, light, appley juicy, vibrant. A slightly herby, salty bitter edge adds an interesting edge and a bit of nice complexity.
Closer to a Chenin Blanc (think Guiberteau) than a typical SB.
Slightly cloudy, incredibly drinkable.
This is a delightful discovery! — 3 years ago
Classic honeysuckle and orchard fruit notes. Nice finish. Not super complex, but Chenin Blanc rarely is. — 3 months ago
Pale pink/peach color, with a very fragrant nose of ripe peach, hibiscus flower candied, a little orange rind and some grassy notes. Medium bodied, with a sharp, tart acidity and underripe red and yellow fruits, surprisingly yellow, with a long dry finish — 5 months ago
