The color and texture of this wine for only being a 2014 was incredible. It's as if the wine went through some hyper-aging process in the bottle , like Robin Williams in that movie Jack.

Oxidative. Nutty and fruity, which is fine if you like that sort of thing. I don't.

There is something about Chenin with some bottle age. Confected fruits, funky and nutty, oxidative edges all held together by ample acidity.

Light straw color with banana, nutmeg, kiwi and a hint of oak on the nose. Banana kiwi continue on the palate with some peaches and a bourbon-like flavor. Soft palate with some good tension. Would love to see this wine as it ages over the next 20 years.
