Sa chenin.
Feels a bit of a product.
Some tropics, 🍑, 🍏 grapefruit and some vanilla.
Full body.
Medium + acidity.
Long 🎯 with a backbone of bitterness
Really Improved pasta with NYT 'all purpose green sauce' and gauda with truffles cheese grated on top.
All in all nice in the evening.
Not so good the next day. — 6 months ago

Give this one a proper 1.5 hour decant, tight, needs to relax. Also deserves proper wine glass, I used a glass tumbler.
Enjoying by the glass, it was fun to witness it unfold. Tight, earthy, tannic, and not very expressive at the beginning, later a floral and raspberry note showed up in the nose. Earthy on the pallet.
9.1 for my experience, could achieve 9.3 with proper handling. — 12 days ago
