Canned peaches, honey, figs, and apricots dominate the nose. Honey, white flowers and more honey control the palate as well. This Demi-sec Vouvray is counterbalanced well by racing acidity.

Layered wine, with the nose showing huge honey notes, canned peaches, white plum, dried sweet fruits, lemon meringue. Palate is predominant honey, apricot puree, sweet peach, all spice and orange. The wine comes off as off dry because the Chenin carries such high acidity.
