I am loving the international array of mini wine bottles in our lovely #gifted wine advent calendar from Laithwaites (thank you!).

This South African Chenin Blanc is full ofโ€ฆ

๐Ÿ‘… lemon lime, grapefruit, melon, light and fruity

Can taste the alcohol too much even though it's 12.5%. Probably wouldn't buy again.

My first from a half case of couples. A south African, ozzies and Sicilian ones.
Very cheap... Especially compared to same level local ones (about 60 nis a bottle)

Pale straw greenish ๐Ÿ‘๏ธ

Sugar sweetness, tropical fruits like guava, some grass and citrus Peel ๐Ÿ‘ƒ

Medium high acidity.

Mostly citrus with hints of tropics and some bitterness ๐Ÿ‘„

Medium body and medium pleasent ๐ŸŽฏ

Not too bad , non complex and good vfm.

Paired OK with spicy Mediterranean brunch.
