Yayoi Wines Chenin Blanc 2022

YAYOI IS JAPANESE FOR 'NEW LIFE'

"Delicious! Textural thing, loaded with lemon curd, almond nutty savouriness, faint sake-like characters and a fine trill of briny acidity to taste. Refreshing while gently coating the palate, a crispness but decidedly in a slippery vein with great extension of flavour and a cool, slightly minty and distinctly saline finish. It’s the kind of medium weight white wine I gravitate towards, and done well." - Mike Bennie, Wine Front

 

"Lemon Curd  Baked Apple Pear Chamomile   
My love for textural white wines has led me on the path to the Loire Valley... This is where my obsession with Chenin Blanc began. Chenin Blanc is the pinnacle of the grape world for me - it’s an old noble grape belonging to the Valley of the Kings.
