Pushing the rich end of the Chenin spectrum with aromas of peaches, apricots, vanilla and coconut custard. The palate is mildly oaky with some sweetness. Chewy. Opulent.
But this also has the quality of hot stones and bitter almond on the finish. Promising but needs more time to develop and settle into its richness. Not a lot of freshness to carry it now. These bottlings seem to hit their stride after 3-4 years. — 5 years ago
Filigree, minerals and gorgeous nose. It’s delicacy and minerality were profound — 6 years ago
Sasparilla root, intense fruit, smoke. — 7 years ago
Agree with other note. Interesting/ Enjoyable wine and an incredible value at $15. Focused and lean (in a good way). Dark fruits, dried herbs and light tobacco. Medium body. Good mouth feel and moderate finish. Needed 30minutes to settle. Would have guessed higher Cab Franc percentage. — 8 years ago
First thing I notice is the golden color. Very floral, white flowers, can smell the green stem of a flower. Smells very hot, with mineral/shell/slate. Also smells sweet, honey suckle, and butterscotch. Must be oaked at least slightly. Tastes hot, high acidity, citrus notes/grapefruit. Very juicy as well, in guava, pineapple, tropical fruits for sure, and green grapes. Also low mouth feel, aka thin, but it is refreshing. I've never tried either of these grapes and really enjoy it. Pretty complex and tasty! — 8 years ago
Nice balance between acidity and fruit. Clean and crisp. — 9 years ago
Smooth, very light, and subtle tastes of pear and apple! My home wouldn’t come up in the app but the cemetery is close by! — 5 years ago
Green apple, peach, mineral and floral notes right after opening. As it warms up has a slightly oily sensation reminiscent of lemon peel. At an even later stage a sweet aroma of fennel seeds. Nice long finish with a slight hint of refreshing bitterness. Hint of smokiness as well. Rounded mouthfeel with good and balanced acidity. — 6 years ago
