With the hot whether we've been having for the past couple of days, everyone will be looking for value priced whites. Here's a review of one from Iron Chef:
--- Iron Chef's Review ---
I was reading The Wine Bible by Karen MacNeil section on the Loire Valley and I just needed to try a Chenin Blanc, of course there are no French versions of the grape in the Province so I had to try the next best thing.
Nose: Kiwi, Tropical fruit, wet stone, grass and floral aromas.
Taste: Lots of Kiwi, Lime peels, Fresh cut grass. Had a nice creamy texture. One might be tempted to call it sweet, but I think it was more a function of lower acidity.
Overall, I enjoyed this wine, I usually don't enjoy lower Acid wines, but the fresh kiwi taste was surprising and tasty.
Price: $12.29
Score: 87
Value: 3.5/5
Region: Western Cape, South Africa
