Bright, vibrant, and refreshing. Citrus and granny smith apple race on the palate leading towards a dry finish, inviting the next sip. Mineral characteristics make this wine very compatible with food.

Wine Profile
Tasting Notes
This Chenin is our most local farm to table wine...grown, made and bottled within 300 yards of our winery. This Chenin Blanc has a very fruity nature to it but is absolutely made in a dry style which allows the finish to linger with clean citrus and floral flavors.
Vineyard Notes
The grapes in our Chenin Blanc come from the vineyard surrounding the winery. Our original Chenin Blanc was planted in the early 1970s. We have been producing a varietal Chenin Blanc from our estate vineyards since the 2002 vintage, and are proud to be a part of the revival of this truly Noble variety.
