Second bottle, as excellent as the first. Enjoying these drier styles best on the younger side. The opposite of Poniatowski's old Clos Baudoin bottlings, that seem immortal. Not a knock on Chidaine, just noteworthy.

Dynamic chenin with ample highs and lows. Thick in the mid palate, then a chalky, saline finish. Super happy I bought two bottles!

Jaune clair
Nez amande épicé gourmand pâtissier
Bouche ample avec pourtant une grande acidité et une rondeur de demi sec
Finale longue avec une belle acidité malgre la maturité et très sec en ressenti
