Zeitgeist 2022 Chenin Blanc St. Helena, Napa Valley

Winery Notes: ” It is clean and expressive, with apricot blossoms, cotton, wool, and incense, and a minerally stone element that together make for a wine with complexity, cut, and softness.  We ferment and age this wine in oak barrels—most of them neutral, creating a focused, deliberate, and ageable wine. This wine is a stunner! It should age gracefully for up to 10 years. A native of the Loire region, Chenin Blanc was once widely popular in California.  It is making a comeback and many small producers are again paying Chenin particularly close attention.  “
