Lucky You, a linked Palate Character!

This is a predominantly Balance & Finesse wine, but it shares structural nuances of Rich & Full as described in the tasting note below.

Tasting Notes
Medium plus bodied, with pleasing acidity that balances the slightly off dry nature of the wine, the nose unfolds with a slightly wooly nature belying the flavors of banana, melon, and white flowers that extend to the mineraly finish.

100% Shuh-NAN BLON
Chenin Blanc is often overlooked, but makes some of the most compelling white wines across Palate Character, including bone dry to sweet in style. Some of the best expressions come from France’s Loire Valley, and South Africa, which at their best are concentrated, crisp, sometimes long-lived, mineral driven wines that deserve more recognition for their high quality age-worthy whites.
