July 14, 2013 - Bright golden straw in color. On the nose is citrus and a waxy note. Lovely, complex mouthfeel...this has the depth and richness of a really good white burgundy, but where that might turn buttery or creamy, this turns mineral and more fruity. Long finish and good acidity. Really wonderful wine, and I agree, a wonderful value.

May 20, 2013 - An unusual find from thewinetobuy.com is this White Chinon. A 100% Chenin Blanc displaying a delicious pear aroma followed by a succulent and lightly sweet apple flavor profile. A wonderful bargain at $20. Enjoy.

May 11, 2013 - Pretty pale yellow. Honey, white flower and lemon candle on nose. Right amount of acidity: pleasant and just short of bracing. Given the delicate fruitiness it balances the experience. Good finish. Highly recommended.

April 28, 2013 - BEST BUY!
Even better than I remembered. Very complex Chenin Blanc that has to be one of the absolute best at this price.

March 15, 2013 - Very subtle and complex aromatics. Palate of slate, and pears and peaches with hints of their stems. A finish that just stays with you.
