Hand picked grapes, crafted without oak. This wine can accompany any fresh fish, including sashimi or replace bubbles with your shucked oysters. Melon, apple with a citrus finish. Easy to fall in love with or while drinking this Chenin.

Balanced floral wine with hints of butter. Could pass for a light Chardonnay. Delicious

2011 vintage. Best with food - rich cream sauces. Too harsh to drink without food. As softer after being opened and breathing for a few hours.

Unwooded. Soft and light. Pairs well with sushi and spicy dishes like Thai.
