Not always the biggest fan of Chenin, but this is the real deal. Clean and precise, loaded with orchard fruit and white flowers, and satisfying weight.

White peach, honeycomb, white flowers, and chalk deliver one of the finest Chenin Blanc that I've tasted. If you don't believe in terroir, certainly this wine will school you. 2010

Further proof (as if any was needed) that Chenin Blanc is where it's at! Coconut oil, honeycomb, nougat-y creaminess linger in my sadly empty glass.

God I love Chenin from the Loire 😊 savory nose of cheese & cream & such - more of that on the palate along with baked apples and warm hay (and don't forget the beautiful minerality & acidity!
