Smoked citrus and crushed rock on the nose. Underripe fruit, limestone and wood on the palate that comes across with great balance. High quality wine given the price point.

Could barely stay awake to try this one after work but glad I did. This is $20. Probably the most expressive Chenin I've had from anywhere. Long finish, very mineral and florally driven just relentless power on this. Bruised pears, lemon peels, thin layer of honey, light amount of oak influence, more medium body than light for a typical Chenin. + acid, not an annoying amount though. Highly recommend if you can find any, 2850 bottles made.
