Pear, green apple, pineapple, citrus, melon, white flower. Good balance between acidity and sweetness. 2014 vintage

Light aromas, faint floral nose of white flowers with hints of fresh almonds. Off-dry, light body and flavors of light white floral, hints of fresh almonds and bright citrus, and stone fruits such as peach. Well-balanced between roundness and freshness. The high acidity keeps the finish lively and clean. The wine is young, but feels it would develop richer honey and lusher fruit notes as it ages. The finish is long and smooth.

Leaning towards Sauternes in syrupy sweetness but has great clean acidity thanks to the nature of Chenin blanc. Honey, chèvre, white grape juiciness.
