Tasting- "The Royal Old Vines Chenin Blanc"

Variety: Chenin Blanc

Country: South Africa

Year: 2012

Price: $7.95

Vintage Cellar Review: "One of the greatest buys I have tasted this year is this under $10, 100% Chenin Blanc from the Western Cape. A super flowery-scented nose includes notions of ripe honeydew melons and pears. This medium-weight, fresh, fruity, crisp, dry, textbook Chenin Blanc will provide immense pleasure over the next 12 months." (90 points- Robert Parker)

My Review: Compared to the first white wine of the tasting (Norton Sauvignon Blanc) this was a much fruitier wine that was rather smooth. Personally, I thought it was quite delicious.
