Crisp mineral tension drives this flint-grown Chenin, with ripe pear and tropical fruit emerging mid-palate. The touch of residual sugar adds richness without compromising the wine's precise, stony backbone. Natural acidity keeps everything focused and vibrant. Needs another year to fully integrate.
