Weighty mouthfeel. Viscous and dry. Not a ton of fruit, but a bit of salinity.

A lovely old vine Chenin Blanc from Santa Ynez Valley that opens up with aromas of bruised apples and butter. The Initial palate is a tart key lime, with a medium finish of pineapple and marzipan. Deliciously paired with pan seared salmon korma and coconut basmati rice.

Nice zippy chenin. Green apple, unripe kiwi, citrus, vanilla, woodsy. At first reminded me of sherry. Opened up as night progressed. Great the next day. Great acid, nice minerality. Wouldve never thought it was from CA. 11.9%

California Chenin? Hell yes! Air it out for a bit and enjoy the acidic zip and slight funk. Delicious!
