Tasting - Riebeek Chenin Blanc

Name: Riebeek Chenin Blanc
Variety: 100% Chenin Blanc
Region: Swartland
Country: South Africa
Year: 2014
Price: $10.00
Shop Review: "Fresh kiwifruit, green apple and almond notes bounce along, showing a flash of plantain on the friendly finish. Drink now."
My Review: The straw-colored wine had a scent that reminded me of green granny smith apples, with a hint of nose that I could not identify. Its taste was bitter on the tongue with a sour finish. I couldn't make out any specific fruits or floral notes. This wine was not my favorite. Was not paired with any food.
