Riebeek Chenin Blanc

•Name: Riebeek Cellars Colection Chenin Blanc
•Variety: Chenin Blanc
•Region: Swartland
•Country: South Africa
•Year: 2014
•Price $10 ON SALE FOR $6.95
• Review " Fresh kiwifruit, green apple and almond notes bounce along, showing a flash of plantain on the friendly finish. Drink now. " - Vintage Cellar
•I thought that this wine had a little more to work with than the Santa Luz.  I noticed melon on the nose, and tasted pear on my first few initial sips.  I had never had a chenin blanc before and I would have to say it was nothing that caught my attention, but I would bring it to an Easter picnic to share with my friends and family.  Nothing was paired with this but I could see it going well with a light salad at lunch time.
