Very easy drinking CB. Crisp, medium body, a lot of oak. Long finish but not what I would call overly pleasant. Good outdoor summer wine. Better with food.

Apple, flower, mineral and hints of asparagus. High on acids balanced with a flowery sweetness. Still being a dry wine! Very good on its own. I suggest a creamy fishsoup. An interesting introduction to chenin blanc! I like :-)

The nose is steely with mineral notes, forest floor, and some caramel. This shows some ripe green apple on the palate, what seems like some oak, and some even acid. It reminds me a lot of a cheap CA chardonnay.

Nose filled with mineral notes, a hint of citrus. Minerality in full power on taste, with a bit of lemon and apple. This has great acidity and goes well with food or alone. I really enjoyed this.

OK, but I had expected more. Not as crisp as a savignon blanc or pinot gris, not as floral as a good torrontes. Had with pasta/arugula/tomoatoes and wish it had been an Italian red instead.

Quite appealing. Peachy apple oaky nose. Well balanced acid. Clean finish.

Honeysuckle. good mineral notes. Very pleasant. Hard to identify as a chenin.

White with a little bit of character. Slightly honeyed, apricot flavours. Very pleasant on its own or with creamy pasata given its acididity.

more mineral driven than my other bottles, continues to be a solid wine, with lots of lemon, cream, and just darn good.

Nose of fresh apples and pear. Pleasant and crisp, but with a bit of a green, chalky finish.
