Either flawed sample our worst Chenin I've ever had. Could be both. Terrible, flabby, and unbelievably unbalanced. Undrinkable.

Savory melon, oily lime, light bright fruit splashed with salinity. Right on point with kielbasa.

Light minerality with some acid. Cider apples and floral notes. Went beautifully with a nicoise salad and Brook trout.

I really liked the wine considering I'm not a big white wine drinker. The citrus fruity flavor is delightful. Hits of grapefruit and lemon twist. Not dry at all.

No idea where we got this bottle. Expectations were low, so I used it for cooking...but then...the remaining half bottle? Well it smells like blue cheese and horse hay. It did quite well in our meal. I'm drinking the rest anyway.
