December 24, 2015 - Xmas Eve 2015
September 14, 2015 - Outstanding off dry Chenin Blanc - wonderful wine
April 21, 2015 - white peaches and golden apples fill the nose, big, white fruit, golden raisins, apricots and kiwi fruit on the palate, soft with rounded fruit, considerably sweet vintage, delicious and drinkable right now
September 12, 2014 - Mismash of hasty impressions from Winebow and Regal Portfolio Tastings (NYC): Big fruit from the 2012 vintage. 2013 will be more citrus fruitlike. Delish!
July 4, 2014 - Front half of a July 4th Virtual Tasting. Served at cellar temperature. Steely nose, honey, white flowers and cotton candy. Palate is creamy lemon oil, lime and a hint of grapefruit, off dry, acidity pops in and grows. Turns mouth puckering as the fine tannins set in. Long tart finish. Very enjoyable. Bargain @ $18.99. Thanks to my Old World counterpart for the suggestion.
June 7, 2014 - Clear, light lemon yellow with legs; clean and youthful nose of medium intensity (a bit reticent); aromas of white flowers, citrus fruits (lemon), ripe apples, nuts (cashews), stone fruit (apricots), grapefruit, no green fruit; medium-plus finish, medium-plus acid, low tannins, medium alcohol, medium body, medium-plus intensity, off-dry; flavors of apple, lychee, pear, kiwi, minerals; good to very good quality; drink now, but has potential for aging due to fruit, acid, body and alcohol; very enjoyable for a Chenin Blanc based wine
May 4, 2014 - Apple, lemon, lanolin, sweetness balanced by the acidity (but just barely). Tasty!
May 4, 2014 - I agree with MRichman. Really great value, and super delicious. I'm not a huge fan of their "regular" Vouvray, but this is almost perfect. Ripe chenin, but with finesse, acid, a sense of a hint of sweetness yet dry on the end. High-toned yet with some depth. This food is perfect with 95% of the food I eat.
April 29, 2014 - Lovely. Wooly with a little oily density, great firm acidic finish. Bright lemon fruit and a bit of pretty flowers. A nice step up from their regular bottling with a little more weight and a little more delicacy. Great buy.
