Nose has pear, sliced lime, tangerine peel, hay bale and orange blossoms.

Palate has ripe pear, under-ripe mango, green melon with medium acidity; short finish, but seems to be picking up with more air time.

Decent weeknight wine, at $16 it's delivering a reasonable value.

Green apple, tangerine, wit a bit of hay and saline. Easy to drink and a nice tart starter on a warm evening.

Straw color, hints of green. Light body. Strong minerality on the nose with green pear, red apple, orange peel, and lilac. Balanced on the palate with moderate acidity.

Just an easy breezy white. This Chenin is fruity and with slight minerality.

Light but flavorful, crisp. Delicious with fish. From bottlecraft.

Wonderful, wonderful for my palate. Light but flavorful. With a little nutty aftertaste and an acidic front.
