Wandering Cellars Old Vine Chenin Blanc 2022 Review
This Chenin Blanc was sourced from vines planted in 1982 in South Africa's Stellenbosch region. The wine is wonderfully balanced between a light mineral vibe and a depth from the vine age and lees aging. There's subtle hints of chamomile and pears with a rich, waxy texture.
