Clear, straw yellow with medium viscosity in the glass. Closed nose of citrus (pineapple), dry grass and melon. Medium body and oily mouthfeel on the palate with decent acidic structure from citrus fruit. Some mellon, minerality spritz and honeysuckle too. Slightly disjointed on the back (bitter peel) with a short finish. A decent Summer drink, especially for $4 at Grocery Outlet.

(Pacific Rim Chenin Blanc Columbia Valley) Pale lemon yellow. A lightly aromatic wine with beeswax, citrus, and melon. The palate is medium-bodied, tart, and just off dry with mouthwatering, lemon-like acidity and a hint of citrus peel on the finish. Recommended

Shared w/ Carol Barker. Definately "new world" rather than vouvray. Clean citris
