Darling Cellars Lime Kilns Chenin Blanc 2025

This is an example of what a Darling Chenin Blanc can produce. A wine with multiple layers of fresh green apple, guava, quince and yellow ripe peaches. Lees and skin contact add a rich creaminess to the wine that leaves a lingering mouthfeel, wishing for more.
