Chenin Blanc, Savagnin
Tania & Vincent Carême Terre Brûlée 'Le Blanc' 2016 Review
A collaboration between a noted Loire Valley winemaker and his South African wife, this Chenin Blanc has more natural, earth French edge than fruit-forward New World character. Think golden appless, cider vinegar, brown sugar, toasted nuts, and a tart, acid-driven finish.
