It has dramatic aromatics of yellow peach, apricot and pineapple plus marzi-pan and leesy, waxy undertones while the palate is full-bodied and well round-ed with tangy acidity and savoury finish. This Chenin will compliment an array of dishes: from orange infused duck confit to lemon infused Norwegian salm-on on a bed of creamed spinach and potato puree.
