2022 Brookdale Estate Mason Road Chenin Blanc
The Mason Road Chenin Blanc is from a mix of young and old vines. The younger vines bring a freshness, while the older vines highlight the unique granite and saline mineral components of the vineyard. Most of the blend is coming from the young vines aged in stainless steel. 15-20% is coming from older vines that are aged in French oak, which gives depth, richness, and mineral notes. This creates layers of flavors and complexity with a long finish. Quite simply, this is a stunner of a wine at a very friendly price-point.
The aromatic profile of this wine is fresh and lively with yellow apple, pineapple, and sweet orange zest. On the palate, the wine shows lemon, yellow and green apple, toasted almond, biscuit, and hints of warming oak spice. The fruit is washed away with a touch of salinity and the benchmark Chenin Blanc zippy acidity.
