Sophisticated and polished, this delightful Chenin Blanc is full of jasmine tea, honey, and apricots, with a lingering touch of lime to the finish. The mouthfeel is creamy and refreshing with some thickness making it an amazing cocktail wine, but it proved a perfect pairing to a plate of Pescado Veracruz.

Light, dry pear and apricot rolls across your tastebuds while a mild spring orchard hots your nose. No bite, very pleasant

The crisp acidity makes this South African chenin blanc a wonderful accompaniment to spicy rigatoni. Fresh and mineral on the nose. Flavors of green apple, pear, and a slight honeysuckle finish. Well balanced.

Very crisp and you can taste the apple and honey comb flavors. Nice color! I like my whites buttery so it's hard to give this a perfect rating. But definitely an enjoyable Chenin Blanc.

Not a big fan of this at first then I tried pairing with Apple, was delicious! Then paired with milk chocolate and wine transformed into an amazing treat!

We had this with gammon coated with honey and whole grain mustard. Crisp, fresh, peachy and totally awesome.
