After 24 hours in a decanter in the fridge, this was awesome. Highly recommend letting it breath.

Lemon and grapefruit, a bit grassy and peppery. Refreshing but not very complex so far. Maybe more will emerge day 2.

Very enjoyable. Maybe a bit more rounded than the previous vintage

Bone dry, acid/fruit balanced, and plenty of weight and viscosity on the palate. The Chenin worked well with Baratta, ciabatta, crushed green olives and pistachios. Drizzled good olive oil mirrors the oily wine.

Citrus, apple, faint grass. Nice minerality. Thought this would have more acid. Rounded.

Sterile. The reds are revolutionary, but the whites do not inspire me.

Hey it's Spring. This is a gear up for nice weather wine. Citrusy.

Green apple and unripe peach on the palate. On the nose a funky vinegary acidity, which is not very pleasant. Not a bad wine, but I’ll pick a dry Riesling over a chenin any day.

Lacking the breadth and depth the 2016 has. Perhaps needs a wee bit more time in bottle.
