Not at tonight’s tasting but I opened it at home to compare to their reserve. Dry, crisp, refreshing. Good value Chenin! 🇿🇦

looking for the perfect Spring white #wine? Think Chenin Blanc fr #SouthAfrica, dependably dry & wallet-friendly. This Ken Forrester 'Petit' is melony and crisp, bursting open on yer palate like a crocus - at perfectly named gastropub YN bar in #nyc

Subtle aroma; scent of freeze dried strawberries (like in Captain Crunch cereal or Strawberry Qwik)

Great quaffer. Light, crisp, balanced, and refreshing. 13% abv. At $12 hard to beat.

Super refreshing with great citrus and stone fruit from nose to finish. Super crushable. Lacking in complexity, but that’s not what it’s for. Great bottle for warm weather to share with friends over good food.
