Chenin from South Africa. More mineral notes on the nose than fruit. Clean slate, flint, little funky wet wool and waxy lemon peel. Lots of citrus comes through on the palate. Underripe grapefruit, lemon and lime pucker, with a nice white pepper note. Seeping acidity, the finish is a little warm by itself but excellent with food. #cheninigans
