Full notes not taken. This wine was complex and almost rustic. Not sure the last time I said that about a white wine. Strong quince and apple notes with some citrus, moderately intense acidity with some trailing tannins and mild oak. Improved with air. I was certain my wife would not like it and, as is true with all certainty in relationships, I was wrong.

Not a good example of Chenin Blanc, and not a very good wine for that matter. Incredibly dull and boring. Notes of butter and subtle fruit. Decent acidity.

This reminds me a a Chablis. Steely and fruit driven with a touch of floral character and a bright finish. Age has done it well.

White and yellow fruit, beeswax and stone. Earthy white with lots going on.
