Wine Critic Review: "The 2015 Chenin Blanc offers loads of melony fruit interspersed with hints of honeysuckle and peach. It is delicious, crisp, fresh, lively, and a dead ringer for a good Loire Valley Chenin Blanc. Drink it over the next year."
My Review: I liked this one well enough, but it certainly was not my favorite. It was a bit too sweet for me, and it tasted more like juice than wine. I want more flavor and less sweetness than this wine provides. I did not have this wine with food.
