Dry Creek Vineyard Wilson Ranch 2015 Chenin Blanc






Dry Creek Vineyard Wilson Ranch 2015 Chenin Blanc, $10.19-$13.99, 91 points, poured a light gold color clearing at the glass edge.
Aromas of lemon, tangerine, lychee, pome blossoms, and a hint of pine resin were excellent.
The delicate wine body with good acidity and an unsuspected depth in citrus and nuanced melon flavors impressed.
Finished long, a bit earthy, embracing its palate flavors with a hint of ginger and a restrained 13% alcohol.

On the first night paired perfectly with my North Atlantic sea scallops, and on the second night paired perfectly with my chicken salad (versatile white wine).

  1. I have been trying to find this wine in local stores, no luck. Jealous, again!

      I've always loved Dry Creek's CB, and need a spanking for not buying each and every vintage.
