Classic Chenin notes of honey, quince, some almond as well. Great velvety mouthfeel and enough acidity to round it out.

Honey, lemon, vanilla oak, divine. Loved it and paired it with a beautiful French Comte cheese.

Ressemble beaucoup a un chardonnay dû à l'élevage en fût de chêne, Très bon vin!

2013 vintage. Always a pleasure. Voluptuous, creamy, soft, but all in good ways. Flowery nose, followed by lush peaches on the palate. Given all that, a surprisingly clean finish with a zing from the acid that's been hiding.

Creamy and delectable. The aromatics and bold flavour lasts forever. The perfect Chardonnay alternative. $25
