Here’s a fantastic South African Chenin Blanc that illustrates the depth and complexity that this grape has to offer when made well. Warm and toasty in the nose with wood-grilled apple, gently toasted brioche with fig preserves and peach pit aromas. The mouth is full and powerful with ripe flavors of red apple skins and honeydew followed by a lively burst of orange citrus on the finish. Balanced with excellent evolution and a long, mouth-watering finish.——L.B.(11/1/2010)—— 90
