From 100% Chenin Blanc, medium lemon color with notes of tangy citrus and stone fruits. On the palate flavors of apple, pear and tart lime with a mineral edge. Medium finish, vivid acidity ending with sharp mineral.

Tried another bottle. From 100% Chenin Blanc, medium lemon color with notes of tangy citrus and stone fruits. On the dry palate flavors of apple, pear and tart lime with a mineral edge. Medium finish, vivid acidity ending with sharp mineral tang. Good value.

Really interesting - flinty and sour without being citrusy. I liked it quite a bit - Kyle said it was fine.

Easy drinking chenin blanc. Lemon verbena and citrus notes. Would be great with roast chicken. Bonus points for the punny name.

Attention Chenin is a golden nectar from the Loire.It had some reduction and wildness, then utterly delicious baked apples and pears and cinnamon swimming around in a lemon bath of pulp.Soft with a sturdy back.
