It’s an interesting how different the more expensive bottlings are from this beloved maker, because this under under 17$ has a one note vibration all its own. Chenin blanc as pure, simple & clean. Compressed leek, marigold, & yellow apple notes. Something more intense & raw on the nose, like an open farm field after a fresh mowing. I’ll always drink this vintner.

Melon and chalk. So fine and floral. Really a 10/10 for what it is. One of the most versatile and value packed white wines on the market now.

Thicker, textured Chenin. Fresh like crunchy green pear, bitter appleseed, celery, white flower petals, and almond skin.

Mild floral and tree fruit aromatics. Medium body with medium acidity and lots of sweet melon fruitiness. Balanced and delicious!
