Bright and very racy, delivering a solid core of fig and quince fruit laced with ginger, cardamom and brioche notes. Floral and mineral hints check in on the finish, adding length and dimension.

A gorgeous wine with so many layers and components that all work magically together to produce a harmonious and well-balanced Chenin Blanc. The bouquet has assertive herbal aromas of cloverfields and menthol supported by notes of baked pear lightly drizzled with butterscotch sauce. The palate is rich and intense, like toasted spicecake topped with grilled peaches and crushed hazelnuts. The creamy texture and long finish seal the deal.——L.B.(9/1/2010)—— 90
