Quite darn tasty. Snappy acidity and fleshy make it go bye bye quickly.

From an especially damp, label-unfriendly part of my cellar.

This shows the texture and flavor of rich, citrusy pineapple custard. Jasmine notes on the nose. A saline, fruit-candy bite. Luxurious, but with a concentrated brightness and great mineral density. I think this will get even better.

The rare chenin from chinon! Delicious! Perfumed, bright mineral, tart green apple, sweet stone fruit. Clean and bright, yet powerful and persistent.

Three bottles, each one different. Bottle No. 2 was like licking honey off a rock in a lightning storm.

Chinon Chenin. A very complete wine. As delicious as it is rare. I invite you to share another bottle with me in a couple years.

Fun to drink; not quite as much energy or length as anticipated.
