I've tried a few chenin blanc wines and this is one of the better ones. It has an interesting flavor that oddly reminded me of my grandma's basement. Priced pretty high ...$25 ish. I really love their bottling and the cork even says saldo on it. Simple and cute.

Jan 22nd, 2023Saldo red is my favorite go-to California wine, so I was excited to see the line has expanded into whites. Medium body at 11.5% abv, but drinks a little heavier. Nice acidity but cloying on the finish upon opening. I’ll give it more time.
Update after after 2 more bottles over time: lower rating. It doesn’t hold up or compare to a true French Chenin Blanc, unfortunately.
