DeMorgenzon, DMZ Chenin Blanc 2017, Stellenbosch, South Africa

Tasting Note: Checks all the boxes for a dry chenin blanc with light body and hints of oak.

Medium-intensity lemon in color, this wine has a nose of green apple, lemon citrus with light-intensity vanilla and clove baking spice along with a hint of nectarine.

On the palate the dry, medium-bodied wine delivers fruit suggested on the nose along with medium-plus acidity underpinned by a steely texture.
