One of three chenins at a midtown Manhattan wine shop with staff that didn't know where to help me find a Chenin blanc. Ok value at $20. but a little one sided and simple. nothing to write an essay about.

#OffDry apricot, mandarin orange, lime, salty minerality... Easy drinking. Nice for those who like a touch of residual sugar.

Iight straw, clear, bright.
Ripe Asian pear and yellow apple show up first followed by a whiff of white pepper but I fail to find the chamomile as suggested by wine folly.
The sweetness is the only thing you notice on first taste and it cleans up into a lingering fruit-cup fruit syrup. A moderate to mod+ acid keep some balance while the minerality rides sidecar. Considering this is from France and is sweet, it still has a noticeable amount of alcohol (12% on this 2015)
A nice wine but not my cup of tea.
