Tete d’Ange is about as good Chenin as I can find for under $25. It’s intense at 13.5%, but wonderfully balanced and full of peaches, apricots, and baked apples. I break my rule with this wine and buy it repeatedly, or as often as I can find it - so it goes with all the good value Chenin I can get my hands on. I adore this grape.
