Vintage Wine Cellar Tasting - The Royal


Name: The Royal Old Vines Steen
Variety: Chenin Blanc
Region: Western Cape
Country: South Africa
Year: 2015
Price: $8.95

Product Description: 87 Points – Robert Parker
"The 2015 Chenin Blanc offers loads of melony fruit interspersed with hints of honeysuckle and peach. It is delicious, crisp, fresh, lively, and a dead ringer for a good Loire Valley Chenin Blanc. Drink it over the next year."

My Review: This wine had scents of strong fruity aromas, specifically peach and apple. The taste was fruity, but not as fruity as it smelled. I got hints of melon and some lemon. The body was light and slightly dry.
