Ripe pear, pleasing aromatics. Drinking by a spring fire outdoors. It went down easy, like I was thirsty , but it was just a nice wine, good company, Sunday evening. I would drink this again.

Solid Chenin! Aromas of slight toast and white pear leads to a palate of honeyed pear and a touch of candied lemon peel. Coupled with a Cinq à Sept at a wonderful art gallery space (Barbara Edwards Contemporary Project Space).

Fragrant with floral and honey notes. Honeyed peaches on the palate. Great with red pepper chicken wings.
