Light, limpid lemon color…very light nose. Clean, crisp, lemon, tart apple notes with a hint of stem. Delightful long finish with a smooth, supple base note and hints of savory basil. Structured, layered, complex and lively. I love Chenin… particularly Californian with early summer simple lemon roast chicken and cucumber/onion salad. I like the producer and wish I had more. Easy to like as a young vibrant wine.

Jun 9th, 2023Delectable, this is the Desire Lines Wine Co. Experimental Series No. 9, Salty Savory Chenin Blanc.
Pop and pour. Reserved upon opening, after 15 minutes in the glass flavors emerged. Nice acid, some mineralty, citrus/lemon, a touch of sweetness at the end. Quite good.
