Oh, wow, it's Chinon! An exemplary workhorse; raspberry, white pepper, and dust.

Uncomplicated and good.

balanced, smooth, elegant. light bodied with notes of strawberry, white pepper, green pepper, and a perfect amount of acidity. just a very nice example of quality chinon and super easy drinking on a beautiful fall day
