We're on a roll with Chenin Blanc - the Fuzion, the KWV, and now this review from Iron Chef:--- Iron Chef's Review ---
After my first South African Chenin, I had to try another.
Nose: Pear, Kiwi, and Pineapple. Some Creamy notes with vanilla accents. Smells great.
Taste: Very smooth- Again Pear and Kiwi favours. Wet stone and nice vanilla. Somewhat Flabby- lower acidity levels. Very Textured and Creamy mouth-feel.
Overall reminded me of the Pineapple Turnover Cake my Grandmother made. This would be a fun pairing with Curry or Thai food. I like the wine- thought it had lots of character and complex tastes. I was struck with the notion that this would be fun with bubbles- a Sparkling Chenin. A tad expensive.
I think I like Chenins.
