Pairing
A savory white wine with some weight is just what you need to stand up to rich foods. Try pairing this with a mac n’ cheese or creamy pasta - the acidity will cut through the creaminess.
TASTING TIP
Notice the way this wine feels in your mouth. That lush, creamy texture is one of the reasons that Chenin Blanc is adored by wine lovers.
