Santa Barbara Landing Chenin Blanc

Wine: Santa Barbara Landing Chenin Blanc

This is quite a light, flavorful wine. It is a dry wine, which my recipe this evening called for. I made the mistake of drinking while I was cooking. Normally, this is fine, but tonight I was so hungry, the wine hit me much quicker than I anticipated. But I digress... This wine has a little bit of a pineapple taste, and despite the wine taste, it is not at all sweet. It's very smooth on the way down. I've tried the Chardonnay from this vineyard before, but I must say I prefer the Chenin Blanc.
