Pretty pretty! So much happening and we just opened it. Chewy fruit, rich minerality, such a treat!

Classic Chenin notes of hay and mineral. Super linear at the moment with high, racy acid. Look forward to trying this again in 10 years. It'll definitely go the distance. If, like me, you're unable to wait, throw this in a decanter and forget about it for a while (like a couple hours) before drinking.

Sadly, my last bottle of this wine. Such a fantastic Chenin, though it has lost a little of the saline intensity it had a few years ago. Nevertheless, still elegant with nice soft oxidative Chenin notes.
