TASTING NOTES & IDEAL PAIRINGS
On the nose, this Chenin Blanc opens with bright lime zest, gardenia petals, and white fruit aromas, underpinned by a subtle waxy note. On the palate, you’ll pick up delicate citrus, pear, and honeyed tones, complemented by fine minerality and a hint of soft texture. The finish is clean and lingering, with a pleasing tension between its crisp acidity and gentle sweetness.
This wine pairs beautifully with seafood, especially shellfish or grilled prawns, thanks to its acidity and floral character. It also works well with goat’s cheese, soft pâté, or light Asian dishes. Try serving it at around 12 °C to bring out both its aromatic nuances and refreshing profile.
