2024 BROSSEAU VINEYARD CHENIN BLANC100% Chenin, 100% Delicious
2024 Brosseau Chenin Blanc
100% Chenin Blanc | Concrete Egg Fermented | Chalone AVA, Monterey County
This wine is 39 cases of golden abundance from one of California's most remarkable sites.
Swirling the glass reveals an ancient golden allure. The aromas are hypnotic and rise beyond the glass: Kumquat, fresh-cut aloe, and a breeze of honeysuckle.
The palate is layered. Lime-soaked Fuji apple, Galia melon, toasted pine nut, and a deep vein of acorn flour that makes the whole palate elemental. Sichuan peppercorn and cinnamon show up mid-palate like a wonder-twins handshake. The finish is long, mouthwatering, and refreshingly salted at the edges.
