Chenin Blanc, Dry Creek Vineyard

Dry Creek Vineyares are proud to have produced Dry Chenin Blanc each and every year since the family winery was founded in 1972. Extremely versatile and food friendly, it is the perfect aperitif and one of their most beloved wines.

Fermented in 100% stainless steel barrels, this beautiful wine is wonderfully bright and consistent vintage after vintage. At first swirl, aromatics of honeydew, white peach and jasmine spring forward from the glass with floral notes of citrus blossom, watermelon rind and pineapple. On the palate, the wine has refreshing flavors of peach, grapefruit and jasmine with hints of mandarin, cucumber and lemon curd. The mouthfeel is soft but inviting, with a lively acidity. This classic, Loire Valley-style wine is excellent when paired with fresh oysters, seafood, or just about anything!
