A classic benchmark for DemiSec Vouvray. Light golden color, Baked apple spice, ripe pears, ginger and honey. Just a hint of sweetness. Paired remarkably with Blue cheese

Ideal accord of acid and sweetness. Stunning brilliant deep gold. Palate has terrific structure— notes of chamomile, botrytis, lemon curd. A real stunner.

The ultimate expression of young Chenin Blanc. Not much else to say. Beautiful nose of quince, springtime acacia flower, and a bit of baked apple. The acidity cuts through the palate but is perfectly balanced by the RS. Today, the juice is a thick golden treat. With age, this will transform into an exquisite and complex, honeyed potion. Trust me - it’s good. 2017 vintage on Mar 24, 2019

Firing on all cylinders. Pure bliss. Attenuated nose due to youth...palate is honeyed, apricot, whiff of petrol, slate, jasmine, honeysuckle...truly something to behold. And a dream pairing with kolhapuri mutton.
