Nearly 5 yr.old Chenin Blanc. Some white peach on the nose and palate with some acidity on the mid palate. The last of my bottles from this vintage. Not a great wine but an excellent value.

Really nice white. Light, refreshing, enjoyable — but with everything well-balanced and in-check. I'm not a fan of mainstream white wines, but this offers a nice twist that appeals to me, and the price point is sure nice as well. Anxious to have it again.

Tastes like a salad. And then full and rich on the palate but still super zingy.

This is really in a good spot. The high acidity is matched with honey notes and a mineral finish.

Vin Chicago Pickup Party & Tasting (Seven Bridges Golf Club): Retailer tasting. Apple and stone notes give way to a candied/sweet/ripe melon quality which works quite nicely here. Stone and pear flavors...really nice fruit. Good. $18.99.

Solid. To me it seems to have some botrytis influence. Dry, but rich.

This bottle was much different than the last. Tight, acidic-- took some time to open up.

Nice Chenin from an obscure area. Vibrant acidity; mineral; honey, and apple notes

Super tasty and paired most excellently with poached chicken in a celery root sauce with lovage.

Bright green apple and super fresh. This has a little bit fuller palate of Coteaux du Loir. Clean and fresh, super fun, no RS.
