Caramel, vanilla, but super light and refreshing — 7 months ago
Not as aromatic as the 2020 Breze — 7 months ago
Vibrant, juicy, so fresh, alive!
Green apples, green grass, a hint of green apricot, some lemongrass. Highly enticing. Not flint like Sancerre, no exotic canned fruit like NZ. Fresh, green, grassy.
On the palate this has a round, slightly creamy mouthfeel but remains focused, light, appley juicy, vibrant. A slightly herby, salty bitter edge adds an interesting edge and a bit of nice complexity.
Closer to a Chenin Blanc (think Guiberteau) than a typical SB.
Slightly cloudy, incredibly drinkable.
This is a delightful discovery! — 3 years ago
Figs and ripe sweet fruit on the nose, with hints of smoked meat, like jerky, and deep rose and candied hibiscus nestled deep. Medium bodied, with quick, nice legs, with a floral palate, smooth and lithe, with silky acidity just starting to soften, vegetal notes, prominent florals more than defineable red fruit, and silky tannins that lead to a dry, lingering but still floral and fresh finish. Maybe even a hit of menthol showing at the end. — 2 years ago
Classic honeysuckle and orchard fruit notes. Nice finish. Not super complex, but Chenin Blanc rarely is. — 2 months ago
Pale pink/peach color, with a very fragrant nose of ripe peach, hibiscus flower candied, a little orange rind and some grassy notes. Medium bodied, with a sharp, tart acidity and underripe red and yellow fruits, surprisingly yellow, with a long dry finish — 4 months ago
