RATINGS

94The Wine Advocate

It has very pretty scents of white peach, honeysuckle, beeswax, biscuit and green herbs. The palate is silky, mouthwatering and surprisingly gregarious with intense, nutty fruit and a long, elegant finish.

90Wine Enthusiast

Initial aromas of this wine recall lemon, lime and citrus zest complemented by floral chamomile, nasturtium nectar, orange blossom and a hint of flaky pastry. Racy acidity keeps the fruits fresh and forward on the palate, while a slight phenolic grip adds textural intrigue.

TYPE

White Wine, Chenin Blanc

This light-bodied white wine grape has zest and versatility depending on its style. It is grown extensively in South Africa, where wineries produce dry wines. Traditional French Chenin Blancs are sweet. It is closest to Pinot Gris and Sauvignon Blanc.
