Golden, rich and fleshy yellow fruit with a serious, stony soul. Something to revisit in a couple years.

Pretty interesting to see how it holds up. Generally past my liking in terms of bulk, but the grape's acidity keeps it together at least for a few more years. Lots of bruised yellow fruit, cheesy and waxy notes. Reminds me of hotter vintage Alsace PG.

Making me wish I had the patience/time to seek out more good SA Chenin Blanc.

Sweet and fuller bodied. Juice-like without oak or something interesting. Not my thing.

Tropical fruit. Pineapple, guava. Beautiful pale color. Leafy smell.

2014. This just misses for me in the world of Chenin blanc. Good wine, just doesn't strike the pleasure button on my palate.

Nicely balanced with that stone fruit and slight of spice vanilla oak is well integrated in the wine. Well made from a fabulous producer
