T. Berkley Wines Norgard Chenin Blanc 2024 Review

Founded in 2016, T. Berkley Wines is a project focused on working with the grapes of the Loire Valley in California. This Chenin Blanc comes from the organically farmed Norgard Vineyard in Mendocino County. Though it comes in at a hearty 14 percent ABV, this wine presents on the palate as a remarkably balanced, classic expression of Chenin Blanc. It offers soft aromas of white flowers, honey, and baked apples, and a waxy palate rich with more orchard fruit flavors and a hint of vanilla.
