Wade Cellars, Clarksburg (California) Chenin Blanc 2020

Nov 9, 2022

By Vince Simmon

 Dwayne Wade opened Wade Cellars after retiring from the NBA with the goal of making affordable quality wines.  This austere but approachable Chenin Blanc drinks like a world-class rendition of the variety, with well integrated flavors that include melon, mineral and floral notes.  The rich acidity and dryness compliment the body and brightness of the wine, making this wine a slam dunk — pun intended.
