DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE: \nTasting Notes for Val du Charron Chennin Blanc\n \n\n \n \n \nVal du Cha
 rron Chenin Blanc (wooded) - $18.99\n \nWellington, South Africa, 2009\n \n
 Known as Steen in South Africa, this is the most widely planted white grape
  there, accounting for one in five vines planted and represents 53% of the 
 world’s Chenin Blanc vines. Perhaps the worlds most versatile white, it can
  be vinified in a variety of styles from sweeter to drier, as well as made 
 into sherry and sparkling wine. The Val du Charron Chenin Blanc is wooded, 
 giving it a rich and round texture. The first few sips are like honey on to
 ast with baked Granny Smith apples and is a wine that can age for several y
 ears. The palate is big, but not fat, held well in check by excellent balan
 cing acids. And there’s some early maturity with modified Chenin Blanc frui
 t flavours already becoming honeyed. The oak adds some nice toasty notes th
 at are very complimentary.\n \n \n \n \n \n\n \nWellington, South Africa\n 
 \nMany of you know Jesse Balsimo that is now the National Sales Manager for
  Val du Charron.  Located less than an hour from Cape Town is Wellington (n
 amed when Napolean defeated the Duke of Wellington) and overlooking the Bov
 lei Valley, lies the Val du Charron Wine and Olive Estate, with great views
  of the majestic Hawequa Mountains nearby.  The original farm was proclaime
 d in 1699, around the same time that French Huguenots settled in the area, 
 bringing with them the art of wine making. The South African estate is now 
 owned by American brothers Craig and Stuart Entwistle and Stuart's wife Cat
 hy, who bought it after it had been abandoned for 20 years. They bulldozed 
 the farm when they bought it and the only vines that could be salvaged were
  the Chenin Blanc. Now they produce super-premium wines.   This is just a t
 aste of what the Wine Club trip to South Africa in 2015 will be like! Mark
