    Tasting Notes

    A bright, crisp, and clean wine reminiscent of a warm summer's day. If you do pour it into a glass, expect a deep straw color that points towards both ripe freshness and complexity. The nose brings tropical and stone fruits first, eliciting thoughts of tangerine and lychee. The palate is round and fleshy with lychee again, along with white peach, apricot & green apple. The finish is long, soft and affectionate.

    Pariring Ideas

    Pair with It’s impossible not to be swept away by this swoon-worthy Chenin Blanc, especially when paired with some delicious homemade food! Enjoy this aromatic white with equally aromatic southeast Asian fare - coconut and lime curries, Chinese lemon chicken, sweet ‘n’ sour pork or tofu and Pad Thai would all be excellent options. Chicken and lemon tagine, roast cauliflower or cauliflower soup, and all kinds of white fish and seafood dishes would also do the job perfectly.
