Radiant and shimmering deep straw in color to a light golden hue. On the nose this wine has distinctive white flower and orchard fruit aromas. On the palate honeysuckle and nectarines along with fleshy peaches and apricots are interlaid with sweet spicy notes and hints of vanilla cream on the finish. There is lots of delicious fruit packed in this wine, but it is the vibrant, energetic acid profile that strikes the palate from start to finish that I find keeps me coming back to the glass over and over again.
Our Chenin Blanc from 2022 is a part of the inaugural release of our new Low Tide label. These wines are meant to emphasize the fresh, crisp, fruity stye of wine our coastal location provides.
"Bright, shimmering yellow in color. On the nose, bright, high toned aromas of peach and nectarine are present along with a distinct dose of lemon zest. The aroma has a hint of briny sea mist as well, hinting at the proximity to the ocean and the ancient seabed soils the vines are planted in. On the palate, more of those stone fruit flavors dominate and are framed by crisp, fresh acidity. The finish is clean and delineated and stays focused on fresh fruit and crisp acidity."
