🏰 Mai & Kenji Hodgson's 2023 Faia is a 【masterful interpretation of Chenin Blanc, naturally made without artifice】, sourced from old vines (50-100 years old) in Anjou. This lively white wine, which demands air to unfold, offers a captivating nose that blossoms between 【candied citrus, ripe peach, and a subtle buttery touch】. The palate combines density and verticality, supported by a fine minerality and a balance between richness and saline freshness, leading to a long finish with notes of apples, apricots, and citrus zest. 🍴 This vibrant Chenin Blanc is an excellent partner for poultry dishes like roasted chicken or turkey. Its freshness and minerality would also complement lighter seafood or vegetable-based dishes. 🥂 Perfect for adventurous wine lovers exploring natural wines, or a thoughtful dinner where its unique character can be appreciated. It's a wine that benefits from some aeration to fully reveal its complexity.
