My go-to daily-drinker Loire Chenin. Very slightly off dry, but comes off pretty much dry on the palate due to nice crisp acidity. Citrus and stone fruit, smattering of white floral notes, and a subtle dash of minerality. Relatively simple but a refreshing quaff that's well-balanced, and its QPR remarkable. Decently well-made, single-vineyard Loire Chenin for 11 bucks? Can't argue with that. I know I'll be crushing plenty of bottles of this on the stoop this summer.

When you find a better $10 bottle of white wine let me know so I can show you my breed of flying pigs. This stuff rocks. & buy it by the case. You are welcome. 2014 vintage.

Bright and light with purity. Grass, cirtus, and chalk like sauv blanc!

Got that sea oysters and honey smell. Light notes of honey tastes, with pear and acid that takes over this nice crisp wine.
