Whoa. This has aged to a leaner more metallic wine that feels much leaner vs a year ago and paradoxically the pear is tasting fresher. So glad to have cases of this in stock.

2010. Not afraid to bring a touch of RS because it's so well integrated into the wine. Fleshy & ripe,Both refined and wild at the same time.

The Loire Valley is home to many different expressions of Chenin Blanc. This one is bone dry but all about unctuous fruit and texture. Get your hands on some!
