More chenin blanc as spring approaches! This one balances zesty exuberance with precision etched mineral cut.

Rounded rich apple & pear on the palate. Balanced with fresh acid & juicy texture. The nose shows more complexity than the palate with a honeyed aromatic note which becomes more pronounced with air. Excellent Chenin.

This wine reminds me of your cool aunt taking you on a ride to the countryside in her sweet little Mazda Miata and bringing a road lunch of mortadella and baguettes and some lemon tarts for dessert
