Winery Review: "A wonderful nose of
bananas, oranges and melons jumps from the glass of this 100% Chenin Blanc,
which is finished with a screw cap. Another great value from South Africa, this
wine is medium-bodied, fresh, lively, and a terrific dry white to drink over
the next year."
My Review: A sweet nose of fruit leaning more towards a mix of softer tree fruits than anything else, though I cannot pinpoint a distinct flavor in the aroma. In the mouth, the aromas are backed up with substance in this sweet, medium-bodied white. Mix it in your mouth with a bit of air and you will feel a bite that lingers not dissimilar to that left by sucking on a lemon wedge.
Tasted without food.
