Saturday, September 19, 2015 - Chenin Fest: 28 Loire Chenin Blancs from 1995 - 1997. (Don Rice's.): Whaddya know? A "sugar hunter" wine has made it into the lineup. It definitely lives up to its designation. There is a lot of residual sugar here. Unfortunately, there's not a lot of acidity to back it up. It's definitely too cloying and over-the-top for some, but I'm really digging the silky/syrupy mouthfeel and, hey, I like sugar. Think of your typical late harvest Chenin fruit in preserve/marmalade form with a dose of honey and that pretty much sums it up. Drinks like an essencia minus the acidity. Low A-.
