  The wine had an unusual intensity with a salty acidity on the first day. It was softer on day two, which made it more well-integrated. The nose was I bit held back when compared to the taste. White and yellow fruit with tropical notes. Some well integrated oak. Overall a nice wine provided you don’t dislike the saltiness.

  Agree with Agri and Hutch below in terms of description. I now understand why the people in Stellenbosch refer to this as the Chenin bench mark. I think it has pretty much everything if you like a fuller style of white wine. And superb value

  I think Hutch's comments are spot on. If you are frustrated with Chardonnay, try this.

  This is really lovely. Rich, round texture. White and yellow fruit. Ripe, but great acidity, everything is integrated, and beautiful. I think I would be lost tasting this blind, but it does hit the notes of Chenin Blanc. And there is nothing fat here. Special stuff. I am glad I tried it. Great intensity to this, it is really incredible.
