2022 Aperture Cellars Chenin Blanc, Clarksburg, USA (750ml) Calistoga and dried rose petalsWINEMAKER'S NOTES: The 2022 Chenin Blanc is a vibrant and bright wine, coming from old vines planted in the 1940s. It is a product of its rich clay loam soils and colder, brisk nights that are made possible by the Delta Breeze coming in off the San Francisco Bay. TASTING NOTES: Very pretty with green melon and white peach aromas as well as honey blossom. Medium body with a creamy texture and a balanced, flavorful and delicious finish. Lovely texture.
