    From the Upland Vineyard, this sweetly fruity (3% residual sugar) wine bursts with fresh flavors of grapefruit and pear. The expansive, fleshy midpalate leads into a clean finish with excellent grip.

    This seems to be a little on the watery side; it does not have the floral highlights that Chenin can sometimes show, nor the fruit concentration that would elevate the score. It's clean and quaffable, with very light citrus and apple fruit flavors.
