Minéral, genre craie, argile! Un peu trop tendre à mon goût! Bon mais pas wow!

Pretty complex for an IGT Chenin.
Honey and white fruits. The acidity keeps it light with the high alcohol. Very nicely balanced.

Crisp and refreshing. Sour and tart. But it grows on you. Green apples. Tastes kind of like a pear cider with lots of aroma.

On the sweeter side with acidic undertones. might be because we waited too long to drink. Still good though

Drinking April 2016. What a round mouth feel- puckering acidity. In all the right ways. Super balanced. Over delivers for price point -
