About the wine
Crisp, clean, world-class Chenin Blanc from the one and only Jesse Katz
Perfectly refreshing, with a bounty of lush stone fruit flavors, this world-class Chenin is a mouthwatering must-try from one of the best indie winemakers in the business.
Winemaker Jesse Katz traveled to the heart of Clarksburg, CA for this spectacular Chenin, hand-harvested from an esteemed old-vine vineyard, where conditions are ideal for growing unbelievably concentrated and complex fruit.
Aged in a mix of stainless steel and French oak for just the right amount of delicate layering of flavors, this Chenin’s crispness pairs beautifully with seafood or a decked out charcuterie board, complete with creamy Brie cheese.
Best before
This wine is drinking beautifully now and will age in bottle gracefully for the next 1-2 years.
Serving advice
We suggest serving this wine chilled.
Food match
This aromatic Chenin Blanc is beautifully served with rich fish or lighter meats like turkey, poultry, or pork chops and is beautifully complemented by creamy cheeses like brie, herbs, and butter sauces and a variety of vegetables.
Contains sulphites
