Shop Review: "The 2015 Chenin Blanc offers loads of melony fruit interspersed with hints of honeysuckle and peach. It is delicious, crisp, fresh, lively, and a dead ringer for a good Loire Valley Chenin Blanc. Drink it over the next year."
My Review: I thought this wine was good! It was crisp and acidic. I got hints of pineapple and lime. Definitely would recommend this wine. I also learned that South Africa has been growing Chenin Blanc grapes for over 400 years! Pretty cool!
Pairing: Not with this wine!
Cheers!
