Everything you'd want in Savennieres. Waxy bruised fruit, bracing acid. Like drinking a sweater. Great value!

Blind tasting. Super bright and surprisingly clean for Savennieres. Called it White Burg and came back later it was clearly Chenin

Damn good Chenin. Not cheesey but full of stone fruit and minerality. One heck of a value of Cachagua store's wine list for like $30.

2014 vintage on Dec 18, 2017 at Sunriver, OR. Typical for this wine at this age will likely age beautifully after a closed phase. One of the most age-worthy white wines at this price point.

Granny Smith apple peel. The acidity and minerality dominate and this is bone dry.
