Vineland Estates 2007 Chenin Blanc Late Harvest
Winemaker Brian Schmidt unveiled this wine during the IRONic CHEF 2008 dinner as the dessert wine, and it’s lovely; subtle and sophisticated, not the sweetie you’d expect. The nose is fresh and floral with pineapple and crisp pear smells, while the palate is simple, displaying lots of crisp Bosc pear nuances. The audience was asked what they thought of this wine, the man next to me said it was “Schmidt-Hot” (and I said the opposite of that would be “Schmidty”), but everyone in attendance agreed it was definitely the former … and I for one would definitely agree with the masses; this wine surely has Schmidt-appeal, whatever that is. Price: $18.95
