Strong citrus, close to citrus candy. Another frustrating PNW white, there is nothing wrong here but it just lacks the minerality and structure that a good Loire Valley white will have, and it's a shame to always have to reach for France when seeking a companion to our wonderful oysters. But I digress. This is ok, just not anything special.

Chalk and minerals dominate. Beautiful pale yellow in the glass. One of the best white values we've had.

Not my favorite. Beautiful pale yellow color. Sweet, tart, green apple candy. Not a lot going on.

Great value wine. Dry Chenin Blanc that is crisp, light with a hint of sweet.

Round somewhat fleshy wine that indeed lacks the acidity and minerality of past vintages. A little high in the r/s in my opinion also.
