Beautifully balanced and mature chenin. Paired perfectly with a multi-course sushi omakase. Deep golden color with a full mouth feel and medium viscosity. I really enjoyed this wine.

Agree with DRWINE2001. Not as good as some vintages. Came off sweeter than what I wanted. More than just off-dry, which may be a measure of less acidity than a change in the residual sugar compared to some prior years. It did not pair particularly well with a slightly sweetened ham with stuffing and potatoes.

Full yellow. Aromas of apple and citrus. Medium weight, not as enveloping as some vintages. Off dry orchard fruit and orange with good acidity and some soil on the finish. Sound, no trace of oxidation, but unexciting.

Needs fruit and acidity but still a nice wine.
