Beautiful fresh nose. Cantaloupe, pear, stone fruit. Hint of sweetness balanced with medium plus acidity. Great pair-able wine for many styles of cuisine, I bet it would be great with something spicy

Big fans - gorgeous balanced drinkable wine. Subtle melon/pear vibes, tastes like fruit right out of the fridge. Was very tasty with oven roasted herby salmon… yum

Crisp acidity, yet off-dry. Peach and melon notes. Paired lovely with shrimp in sweet spicy sauce.

Wonderful nose of apricot and pineapple. Oh wow this is good. Soft mouth feel, with lovely white fruits.

Yellow apple and apricot aromas, a round, structured body with sweet cantaloupe and apricot, and the texture of fuzzy peach skin. A definite level or sweetness. Get to Know Chenin Blanc Class. #gotm2020

Sweet, citrus, tart, but well rounded without a bite.
