Sipping Fine Wine

6.1

Straw with aromas of sweet stone fruits. On the palate peach, pear and honey. Wine is too sweet for a Chenin, lacks acidity and complexity, a little off. Medium finish but I would pass. Pricey. Tasting Sample.

Sweet. Pear and honey notes. I prefer dry wines so this was not to my liking but others in our party liked it a lot.
