Grew on me immensely with food. Missing that trademark Loire acidity but lovely smells and flavors - white flowers, honeydew, white pear!

Served it at pizza night as a beautiful introduction for our customers to natural wine. Nice quite enough acid to cut through the cheesiness or a cream sauce pizza but incredible before dinner! A whisper of effervescence and made me say "yum!"

Serious Chenin! Getting towards the full bodied end of the spectrum. Curious if there’s any RS at 11.9% alc. Honeyed lemon and pear on the palate, which is very slightly waxy. Want to lay a couple of these down.

Great Chenin! Perfect for a summer day or lighter meal. Not as good as D Wade’s but could be worth it if at BP.

This is a really fun wine! Sweet citrus. Lots of zing. Crisp with a rounded vanilla / honey note at the end.

A little syrupy, better after sitting for a bit

Really, really delicious and surprising. Guava, hazelnut, peaches and apricots in a creamy texture with a hint of vanilla bean. A lot of evolution in the glass, too. It reminds me of a good Rhone white more than a Loire chenin, but that just speaks to the protean potential of the grape.

Went well with the venison kabobs. Was really juicy on the noise but just a little sweet on the palate.

A tad sweeter than what I typically drink but good with spicy Asian food
