I love the tension and purity in this wine. Great citrus and orchard fruit, enveloping texture. Long acid-driven finish. Quite Loire-esque. Great value for beautifully made CA Chenin.

Is it any surprise that Pax is a champion of Chenin Blanc in California? Wonderful wine with classic aromas of wet wool, pear, lemon and herbal tea. Acidity is appropriately intense, excellent weight on the mid palate, rounding out slightly before transitioning to lean and taut finish. Real beauty!

Delicious Chenin Blanc by Pax Mahle, one of Sonoma Coast’s leading producers – better known for his Syrah. Sourced from Buddha’s Dharma vineyard, north of the City of Ten Thousand Buddhas (that is the actual name of the city) in Mendocino County. Planted in 1944 on gravely volcanic soils, the vineyard had belonged to the nearby Buddhist community and for most of its existence it was used for bulk wine production. Fermented in stainless steel, cement and oak, with 10-month elevage in neutral oak. Fresh, dry, crispy with notes of apple, pear and chamomile. Mineral, textured, slightly oily, excellent acidity.
