Still needs some cellar time to suck up all the wood into a fully harmonious glass of wine, but with a little time in the decanter, this is pretty darn tasty already. Manages to balance zippy acidity against lightly oxidized orchard fruit, with the whole thing in a pretty weighty package. Yum, but wait 5 years.

Chenin the way it's meant to be. Lemon chiffon with life changing acidity and beautiful minerality.
