This is a very tasty Chenin Blanc from France. Showing honey, yellow apples, apricots, tropical fruits and spices.

Light to medium in body with medium plus acidity.

Semi sweet on the palate and very tasty.

Nicely balanced with a slight buttery feel. Nice and elegant.

I've had a few different vintages before, and it keeps on being consistent and yummy.

12% alcohol by volume.

90 points.

Semi dry, so on the sweeter side but well balanced. Honey and apricot, almost mead-like. Carries you across courses — fish, cheese, dessert. Easy drinking but not one-note. K loves this one

Extremely sweet. Requested a Riesling that was between sweet and dry (midrange) and this bottle was recommended. Reminded me of a Moscato. Not a fan.
