The Houmoed Chenin Blanc has a rich and layered profile that combines ripe stone fruits, honey, and minerality.
The wine opens with aromas of quince, apricot, and peach, complemented by floral notes and a touch of honey and almond. These give the nose a balanced profile of fruit and a gentle sweetness.
Expect a full-bodied mouthfeel with an impressive weight that showcases the rich, ripe character of Chenin Blanc. The minerality adds structure, while the fruit and oak are seamlessly integrated, creating a harmonious balance.
The finish is long and lingering, with the minerality and fruit carrying through, leaving a refreshing yet creamy impression on the palate.
This Chenin Blanc’s depth and complexity make it versatile, suitable for both light and richly flavored dishes such as Creamy Chestnut & Mushroom Soup, Breaded Scallops or Oysters Rockefeller, Oven-Baked Camembert or Brie, Butternut Squash or Truffle Risotto and Roasted Chicken or Turkey, especially with herbs and a hint of citrus.
