GT Fish and Oyster. Was good - bit of sweetness but not overpowering.

(0) Wood staves and lemon Pledge out of the bottle. Softens a bit after 15 min in the glass. Not a good walk around wine.

Had not had this #wine in a long time, on the drier side especially for a Demi-sec but a lovely core of acidity & with just enough #Chenin funk.

2012 vintage. Lovely notes of green apple, pear, and peach. Slight minerality. Definite sweetness, would love to try the Sec version of this.

Starts with a bouquet of minerals and kerosene (and a bit of pineapple and pear) but surprises the palate with flavors of buttery caramel and tropical fruits. Demi-sec so not too dry and not too sweet. Excellent taste to pair with pork or a mild fish.
