Community Tasting Note

christyler Likes this wine:

Monday, September 28, 2015 - Wow, this is great. The first chenin in a while to make me realize why I love the grape.

From the importer: "We like ours to be drinkable and fresh, we like ours to not smell like matchsticks, and we'd rather they don't give us a big headache in the morning if possible. We're also not willing to give up the complexity that a great Chenin should give you just because we like to drink buckets of it."

Yep. This has a touch of the lemon / minerality that I find overbearing in so many wines, but it's held in check and balanced by other yellow fruit. Nice acidity and cut without being overbearing or screechy.
