$16, 3 stars, 87 points, chenin blanc, france, loire valley, off-dry
Medium lemon, bordering on light gold with medium viscosity legs (12% ABV). The nose of this Chenin Blanc has medium (+) intensity aromas of lemon pith, wool, grapefruit zest, orange blossom and honeysuckle. The palate is off-dry with some high acidity and a medium body. The citrus melange and floral notes are of good intensity and the wine begs to be drunk. It finishes with a medium (-) length but it entices me back for more. A delicious aperitif which I will pair with Peruvian chicken in the air fryer and a Middle Eastern rice dish laced with cinnamon. It gets 87 points from me and at $16, 3 stars. Drink now. Salut….
