This wines nose has notes of tropical fruit and flowers. The palate has notes of apricot, honey, and melon with some acidity to balance it. Great with soy marinated pork loin.

A little anise on the nose. Stone fruit flavors. Mellow and smooth. Drank with fish dinner

A conundrum on Day 1, it hinted too much residual sugar (even for a Vouvray), with not enough backbone. Pleasant but cloying. Day 2 was a different story: ripe peach, honeydew, apricots, and zippy acid taking it to a close. Would buy again but offer to serious Chenin lovers

Very straightforward, off-dry Vouvray.

Stone fruits with some acidity. A slight off-dry bitter end. I had this with absolutely nothing but Iā€™m drooling at the thought of having a pork tenderloin with this.

2015, light and refreshing, slight melon, ripe green pear. Lovely sipper but maybe too sweet for regular rotation.
