ageworthy Chenin Blanc—offering depth and complexity that rival top white Burgundy

Luis Seabra, Douro Branco 'Xisto Cru', 2023 BDXCOUNT0606 ageworthy Chenin Blanc—offering depth and"Rabigato based white, showing discreet aromas of lime and apple with a stony austerity. The palate is medium to full bodied, expressive and tense, with a thread of precisely delineated fruit. Sourced from three old high altitude vineyards in Meda. Delicious already, but will improve with bottle age. Aged in neutral French oak for two winters. Drink or hold." Jacobo Garcia Andrade Llamas, JamesSuckling. com
