Classic white wine to tempt you!

This wine is a classic Chenin Blanc wiine. It is exactly as it says, citrus notes with passion fruit taste. Nice easy drinking wine to have with fish and white meats. I love the fact it is dry and yet fruity in a classic way but not too fruity. Like the price, like the wine and really you should try it if you like dry white wines. You will not be disappointed in the value, taste or quality of this wine.

This review is for the 2010 vintage

A reliable smooth and slightly fruity wine, with a light taste. It goes well with fish and white meats. It is marvellous value for money from Tesco Direct, and we always keep a few bottles handy
