Quite dry, and with lots of acid. Leans towards greener fruits. Lime zest, kiwi skin. Lengthy, fresh finish.

Fresh bright citrus with powerful crisp acidity. Could be confused for a Sauv Blanc but we knew it was a unique white from this expert Pinot Noir producer. What a way to start our Thanksgiving dinner!

Light, crispy, mineral and refreshing acidity. It reminds me of a good 1er cry Chablis

@Delectable Wine - this is is the Chenin.. Popped and poured initially shy at first, revisited at the end of the tasting, and this baby was straight up gorgeous- high acid, lime, perfect hint of waxy.. Would have never guessed this to be central coast... #cheninigans ya dig?
