Husch, Mendocino (California) Chenin Blanc 2016

Feb 22, 2017

By Michael Franz

A juicy and vivid Chenin with a decidedly sweet side but enough acidity to achieve balance, this is a dream wine for a Thai green curry dish.  Subtle aromas of wild honey lead to a peach- and pear-driven fruit profile, with a nice shot of citrus in the finish to counter-balance the sweetness.  A Double Gold award winner at the 2017 Toast of the Coast Wine Competition.
