A very tasty Chenin Blanc from France.

Great mouthfeel with medium plus acidity. A little RS with nice complexity.

Showing lemons, honey, apples, melons, tropical fruits, peaches and bananas. Tasty and delicious.

The reserve is a little better, but this is a good one too.

Straw with aromas of sweet stone fruits. On the palate peach and honey. Wine is a little sweet for a Chenin, lacks structured acidity and complexity, a bit off. Medium finish, ok but I would pass. Tasting Sample.

A very nice and smooth C-B - light, with an ever so slight citrusy taste that dances with juicy grapes that entertains. Supple with a nice crispy mellow finish.

Bright straw gold. Honeyed peaches and straw on the inviting nose and medium light palate. Hint or sweetness well balanced by medium plus acidity making this a great sipper or brunch/light meal wine. What’s not to love? Drink now.

An off-dry wine with tropical fruit aromas. On the palate apple and peach, vivid acidity yet with an underlying creaminess. Medium finish with acidity that screams for some spicy foods.

Some home renovation Vouvray today. I consistently like French Chenin blanc quite a bit. Crisp vanilla citrus. So refreshing and yet still so interesting.

Excellent alternative to Chardonnay. Very refreshing. Great straight out of the fridge. Citrusy and mellow with just a bit bite at the end

Pale lemon in color.

Medium intensity on the nose of peaches, apricots, mint and white flowers.

Off dry on the palate and creamy, with mangos, peaches, lime and sweet and sour candy.

Full bodied with medium acidity and Long finish.

This is a great wine to sip on the beach or poolside.
