Finally got around to opening this one. Almost electric intensity. Wish I bought more when it was marked down to clear at the LCBO.

Medium+ intensity with heady floral aromas (chamomile, honeysuckle), ripe nectarine, pineapple, pear, melon, grapefruit, lemon peel, toasty butterscotch, plus a mineral note and cold cream.

On the palate, dry with medium body and well-balanced acids and alcohol. Ripe nectarine, melon, golden delicious apple, star anise, almond, honey and mineral notes. Creamy mouthfeel.

A decidedly pleasant Steen (Chenin Blanc) at a great price.

Tasted November 2016.
