Light greenish yellow. Refreshing on the nose with citrus and clean notes. Medium acidity (5.5/10) and light plus bodied. Clean and light stone and tree fruits on the palate. A bit of minerality and long finish. Drink till 2020.

Too much toast on this. An odd and smokey Chenin blanc.

Cantaloupe Melon and pear on the nose. Overpowering toast on the initial palate. Aged in heavy toasted oak I suspect. Finishes with fresh clean pear.
