Been on a Chenin kick lately, learning a lot, and this one is memorable, laser acidity with a subtle but beguiling bee pollen flavor that coats the acid, creating spot on balance

Thank you @Ryan O'Connor . Wherever you got this, you should get more. Its an incredible bottle of wine. Lighting acidity which holds together a ripe palate of stone fruit and almond butter. It's finish goes on for days. Would love to check back in on this wine in 10-15 years

Complètement déroutant! Le nez présenté des notes de Chenin sur mûries. Tandis que la bouche et tendue comme une barre à clou! Magnifique

Still a baby but so much complexity and grace. Apples lemons and honey for days.
