Wine Review: This clear and straw-colored Chenin Blanc based wine from Gros Ventre opens with a green apple and lemon-lime bouquet with hints of green tea. On the palate, this wine is light plus bodied with integrated medium acidity. The mouthfeel is nicely balanced and super smooth. The flavor profile is gentle Anjou pear and green tea blend with notes of almond and honeydew melon. I also detected a touch of banana crème pie and quince. The finish is dry, and its flavors and acidity fade away nicely. I would pair this delicate and food friendly white blend with a baked Dover sole. Enjoy - Ken

Winemaker Notes: We're so thrilled with the way the 2023 has evolved, with natural acidity, gorgeous color, and beautiful aromatics. We aged on light lees for 10 months in primarily neutral oak (67%) to round out the palate and complement the natural acidity. Citrus, stone fruit, and pear notes are coupled with white flowers on the nose.
