Reserve Old Vine Chenin Blanc
Stellenbosch, Coastal Region, Western Cape, South Africa
A nice medium intensity gold color. Fresh floral honeysuckle, crushed stone minerality, sweet lemon and ripe, juicy pear. Excellent medium+ acidity and body, medium alcohol. Pear, sweet lemon, and then white peach gives away the new world. A long clean finish that is minerallly and juicy.
This is a fantastic new world Chenin and highly recommended. $13
