A grab bag of floral and citrus aromatics. Given how young this wine is the palate does not have the same openness that the nose has. Bright acidity and excellent balance.

Wet stones, underripe peach, lemon pith. Very interesting new world expression of Chenin.

It was born as a heavy weight Jurassic indeed, tidal waves of flavor stoney fruit as hell, fresh young white peach pith, with clarified butter accents , quince paste texture, baked golden apple skins! Lemon chiffon cake dry backside, it lures me in paired well w/
Ahi , but might pair better with cake or lighter fish barramundi or tilefish
