Disappointing Texas Wine
I was too worn out to make a cocktail this evening, so I opened a bottle of Fall Creek Chenin Blanc. I believe this is the first wine from Fall Creek that I have tasted - the vineyard is located in Tow, Texas. Low acidity, too heavy and apple-juice-y of a body, with an off-putting sweetness. Lacks a crispness I like in white wines. Luckily, I got it on sale for $7. Maybe I'll make that cocktail after all...

I love Chenin Blanc, but you are spot on with this one...too sweet, to 'describe quickly', was my initial reaction. When you feel like it, try the Pine Ridge Chenin Blanc/Viognier blend at the store...nicely rounded, with a tart finish!
