Kirschenmann

2014 Lodi Chenin Blanc

This white wine is medium-bodied with delightful acidity that provides a bright and refreshing quality, making it wonderfully food-friendly. The fruit intensity is prominent, revealing luscious notes of stone fruit and citrus, while subtler floral aromas add complexity to its profile. Its dryness enhances the wine's food compatibility, allowing it to pair seamlessly with a variety of dishes. The texture is beautifully balanced, demonstrating refined character with a touch of minerality that lingers pleasantly on the palate, highlighting the craftsmanship inherent in this exceptional bottling from Lodi.

Central Valley
Central Valley

Away from the dramatically cooling influence of the Pacific Ocean, Central Valley is California's breadbasket, where much of the country's fruit, vegetables, nuts and grapes are grown. Bathed in sunshine and growing in fertile soils, Central Valley spreads 400 miles from Sacramento to Fresno. Because of its heat, the region produces abundant Zinfandel and Cabernet Sauvignon, which soak up the sun and transform it into dense, deeply colored wine. In the region's cooler AVAs—those that lie around the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, such as Lodi—higher acid grapes like Chenin Blanc, Colombard, Barbera and Chardonnay grow with great success.
