Great Chenin aromatics but oily and slightly sweet, not adequately elevated by its medium acid

Grab a decanter! Very tight and closed in initially. Honey suckle and kiwi fruit starts the conversation. Quince and lemon zest flavors build the base and the acidity keeps the finish taught on the balance beam.

For $15 I guess I can't get upset but usually SA over delivers on value....this not so much. Gray,rough edges, bland, linear. ...maybe some time would do it well but today it reminds me of shitty Chilean Chard I had a few yrs ago. KL.
