First of the blind white wines at this quarter's S&E Wine Club, which for whites was Chardonnay vs Chenin Blanc. Thanks John for bringing this.
Light and crystal clear pale yellow. Very tight on the nose to start with citrus and stone fruit notes. Quite clean as well. Crisp palate with a ton of acidity (7.5/10). Medium bodied with layers of citrus zest, white floral notes and green apples. Stoney and medium plus to long finish. Good potential but needs a little time to integrate further. Drink till 2027. (91+)
