"The 2023 Chenin Blanc Cezanne comes from 1980-planted vines in Mendocino County. It presents a lovely equilibrium of lean, driving acids, mineral depth and varietal richness, with a surprising feeling of voluptuousness for such a bright, focused wine. Yellow apple, jasmine, white pepper and chamomile dance across the palate with verve. Fermentation and aging in a combination of concrete egg and neutral oak yielded a distinctive, precise Chenin. Delicious."
