Always a reliable producer, and this white is an everyday quaffed for lovers of Chenin with zip. The blend is deftly done, adding a different layer of acid to the finish, and it can be sipped or paired with many dishes.

Thin and lacking acidity and structure. Some floral notes and honeysuckle. Expected more.

There is a jarring note on the finish; like the pith of citrus that you aren't supposed to zest because it's so bitter, or really really bitter greens.
