This Chenin Blanc is a real find for the price! The aromas of golden apple truly match this wine’s off dry, slightly effervescent, and mouthwatering delivery. Bountiful flavors of apple and citrus appear to go on forever in the wine’s very long finish. It’s an ideal compliment to spicy shrimp bisque.
