Exactly what I want out of a dry Chenin. Citrus, mineral and a hint of honey. Great value.

Glad I waited on this. Terrific nose. Mineral, grilled nuts, fresh hay, minerals, chalk, lime and white pepper. Dazzling array of aromas. Palate is fresh and dynamic yet also toned reflecting the vintage. Terrific intense minerality and dazzling complexity, concentration and finesse. Lovely, fresh and dynamic. Years to go.
