This distinctive blend opens with a dazzling spectrum of fruit and floral aromas, from crisp white peach, honeyed pear and sweet mango, to touches of fresh jasmine blossom and white chai tea. The 2019 Pine Ridge Chenin Blanc Viognier begins with very pleasant aromas of grapefruit, melon and pear along with honeysuckle and other floral notes. Tasting the light to medium-bodied wine reveals loads of juicy, succulent green apple, pear, lots of citrus fruit and maybe just a touch of effervescence. The wine also has a fabulous lively acidity and a nice mineral streak. Tropical fruit notes take over mid-palate and lead into the fresh and crisp finish.
