Tight quince and slightly bitter minerality. Quite complex even young. Strong finish with ginger and honey notes. A classic Loire Chenin Blanc in the making. Needs another 3 to 5 years to hit peak drinking window.
Day four
Finished the bottle paired with a shrimp casserole. Wow! This wine really grabs your attention now with a glimpse of its lovely future. More open and giving with pear and brilliant, crystalline minerality on display. Long finish with deliciously herbal body/texture/mouthfeel that comes only from the great Loire Chenin Blancs.
