November 25, 2023 - Too acidic for my own taste, no long finish but quite good for apero though

Intense beeswax / honey aroma followed by ripe golden apple and wet gravel. On the palate the wine is lean and steely, with flavors following through, but also getting some apple skin, almonds and some citrusy bitterness. High acid. Really nice with scallops.1 person found this helpful Comment -

June 30, 2023 - An Epic Summer Wine Weekend - Year 2; 6/30/2023-7/2/2023 (Muskoka, Ontario, Canada): First warm-up wine of the weekend before everyone arrived, sipped on the dock while going for a swim. This pours light straw in the glass. The nose is fresh and airy with the fruit very green apple and lime driven augmented with notes of pool toy, white peach, and slate. The palate enters on white peach, quickly turning to high, sour acid with significant green apple and lime notes. The finish closes on quite green tinged acid. Perhaps a vague hint of RS. All in all I found this quite riesling-like with the very high green tinged acid and seemingly a pinch of RS. Not my personal preferred style of Loire Chenin Blanc, but I can fully understand and appreciate why others love it. Perfectly serviceable stuff.
