QOTD: This was the first wiine I actually remember tasting. On my last day at college in San Luis Obispo, we toured all of the wineries in the county, all Four of them. Yes, there were only four wineries in SLO in 1980 that I remember. Have not had CB since then.

QOTD: Haven’t had a Chenin Blanc yet. Adding it to the list.

Great show…love the Chenin…it flies under the radar for most folks and really is a gem. Spot on!!!

Wow. It has probably been fifteen years since I had a Chenin Blanc. I went through a period where I tried several of them, but decided they weren’t my style. Too many of them had too much RS for me. Too many of them lacked acid and were just plain flabby. They seemed too floral on the order of simple riesling (NTTAWWT!). My palate has changed though, and I find myself liking many varietals not that I didn’t used to like. I promise to seek a couple out and give them a try.

can’t remember but i don’t remember names unless I write them down, probably about 4 months ago

Gary, please don’t ban me from watching but … honestly, I’ve never had Chenin Blanc. I watch WLTV for its entertainment value, and I’m working up to being a true wine guy.

Cheninathon II! That was short and sweet.

Damn it, you had to go and remind me that I forgot to slip a Chidaine Vouvray on my last box.

QOD: 2006 Domaine Pichot Peu de la Moriette Vouvray. Deep gold and delicious.

last CB was a south african one, ’06 Villiera. Very good for $10 at my local wine place, had some nice spice going on in the background.

They were talking about the Jets on sportscenter the other day and showed a couple draft clips. Was hoping they’d show GV going bonkers! but alas no…

About a week ago: Drouet Freres Vouvray, Comte de la Boisserie

Haven’t a clue.

Inniskillin Okanagan chenin blanc from British Columbia

Touraine is where it’s at!

QOTD: I’m not much of a white fan, occasionally have an Alsatian Riesling with Thai but not much else…..life is too short to drink wine that doesn’t turn you on. The last Chenin Blanc I had was at my favorite wine store which is always pouring three different wines while you shop. It was an over-oaked example from Napa, don’t even remember who made it….sorry.

Qotd: Teddy Hall Chenin Blanc – it ain’t great, but for the money how can you go wrong?!!

Last I’ve had was a winery in Napa – it was nice and refreshing, but a little light and hollow too.

QOTD: I’ve seen Chenin Blanc here and there, but haven’t actually tried one. Someday, maybe.

Gary!
Awesome show!

I’ve tasted a few chenny, chen, chens at local wine tastings, but I’ve never bought any bottles. Time to expand my palate…

Wonderful show!!! I’m not crazy bout the Chinin Blanc, but this makes me want to go out and buy a few bottles and try them out again….what a wonderful show!!! cheers

It’s been a while since i had a CB….it was in february in utah…but i cant remember which it was….

Never had one, but I will now!!!

QOTD: MAN Chenin Blanc from South Africa. Had this at a tasting and everyone agreed that it tasted more like a Sauv Blanc than the South African Sauv Blanc that was also at the tasting.

QOTD- Drank a sparking vouvray in 11-06, and a still chenin blanc last summer on a hot day in an outdoor restaurant in NYC. Neither one knocked my socks off, but worth a try, and will try again because the palate is always changing and two tastes does not an opinion make.
