Pale golden color, medium minus viscosity. Initial aroma of pineapple, lemonade, followed by slightly reductive yeastiness, slate. On the palate there's tropical pineapple/guava, green apple, and slight salinity, with a big hit of acid and superb minerality. Light on its feet, linear, elegant, with just the right sweet/acid balance, low alcohol (12%). Lovely example of dry Loire Chenin, excellent typicity. The acid here would work well with a wide range of foods, though it's also nice alone as an aperitif.

Tart with a hint of RS to balcnace, good weight and nice linger. Modest tropical flavors. Nice wine
