Kanu Chenin Blanc 2006

In South African legend, Kanu was a bird who promised a bountiful harvest to all who passed under its shadow. The makers of this dry and delicate Chenin Blanc must have been directly under its flight path, because this bottle is bursting with fresh, full tropical fruit flavors, layered over a subtle mineral base. Drink this on its own or take advantage of its great acidity by pairing it with light hors d'oeuvres.
