The pinnacle of what we consider to be the finest expression of the grapes of this varietal an icon chenin, a challenge to the world! Rich, layered with dried apricot, vanilla and honey. Will gain additional complexity with cellaring. Enjoy with special friends as an exciting aperitif or with spiced dishes, even mild seafood/shellfish or curries.
