La Pluma Chenin Blanc

Chenin Blanc is endlessly versatile, it can be lean or lush, bone-dry or honeyed, and this California expression finds a particularly lovely middle ground. Ripe pear and golden apple on the nose, warm and inviting. A note of chamomile drifts through, herbal and calming. The palate has a pleasing roundness, with good fruit weight and just enough acidity to keep everything in balance.

The finish is clean and slightly waxy in the most elegant way. A wine that rewards those who pay attention.
