Tasting - Royal Chenin Blanc

Name: Royal Chenin Blanc
Variety: 100% Chenin Blanc
Region: Swartland 
Country: South Africa
Year: 2009
Price: $4.95

Winery review: "This wine packs a deceptive punch. And that punch tastes of apples, pears and quince, with an appealing herbal tone that helps it pair well with salads and other light fare. Don't drink too cold, or you might miss all the fruit." - Washington Post (June 2010)

My review: I thought this wine was very crisp and light. It had a nice level of heat and tasted very fruity. I detected lemon and apples mostly. Very good wine. 

I tasted this on its own with no food.
