Amisfield
Central Otago Chenin Blanc
Central Otago, Otago, South Island, New Zealand
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour with friends while playing pool. The 2022 pours a straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of white tree flowers, mangosteen, dragon fruit, green apple, lanolin, and limestone minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. This is a bright and vibrant expression of Chenin Blanc and I’m here for it. Drink now to enjoy the energy and verve though, I’m sure this would age well too.
