this was the best bottle I have had of this. Lean and nervy, interesting green apple notes on the nose and the palate, great acid balance and some complexity thrown in. It has more individual character than strict varietal character, but how many chenin blanc based wines do I normally drink anyway? Excellent with food and distinctive. Glad I have another bottle still.

NSMFOW January (The Grapevine, Salem, MA): Golden yellow color with good legs. Nose of white fruits and alcohol. Slight spritziness. Palate of apple, fruit candy, citrus, layered beautifully on minerality and acidity. Weighty mouthfeel with a long finish. This wine is very balanced with great depth.

Consistent with previous notes. Paired well with several cheeses.

Full bodied and fresh wine. A lot of acidity, green apples and citrus. Very pure and refreshing.
