About the wine
Bright and zesty Pacific Northwest white
This is old-vine Chenin Blanc at its finest – crisp, fresh and vibrant. This delicate wine greets you with aromas of white flowers and melon and mouthwatering flavors like juicy citrus and crisp green apple.
Ashley discovered a 1968-era Chenin Blanc vineyard during a blind tasting. She tracked down the winemaker – a friend of a friend. That connection – plus Angel funding – gave Ashley access to this legendary block and another dating to the late 1970s.
As Naked’s first Yakima Valley wine and Ashley’s first Angel-funded wine, this top-rated, old-vine specialty (last vintage earned 91 points from Wine Enthusiast!) won’t last long.
Best before
This wine is bottled young to capture its exuberant nature. Its acidity provides longevity. Enjoy it now and over the next 4-5 years. The young fruitiness will become more savory and honeyed as the wine ages.
Serving advice
Pull this out of the fridge for 10-15 minutes and serve.
Food match
Pork tenderloin with pickled mustard seed would be delicious with this. Anything with goat cheese!
Contains sulphites
