I'm fully onboard with the critics on this one... "intriguing", "appealing", and "bloody delicious" sum it up nicely. South Africa excels at this kind of chenin blanc + value added blend... my personal favorite is Jonty's Ducks, but that hasn't shown up at the LCBO for a couple of years now. This is a worthy substitute... not a summer patio sipper, perhaps, but this wine has the heft and versatility to accompany many a wide variety of edibles.
