A year and a half later, this wine is still delicious. Totally Chenin and nice balance between the plump mid-palate and acidity.

2017. Very tasty. Mostly lemon with peach pit, great mouthfeel and long finish. Well done.

This is their Chenin. I’ve requested Delectable add it.

On the nose; wet wool, white citrus, pears, some honey, pineapple, beautiful minerality, nice chalkiness, and yellow & white florals.

On the palate; the body is medium full, pear, some honey, pineapple, beautiful minerality, nice soft chalkiness, and yellow & white florals. Very similar to Loire and drinks better younger, yet will still age.
