Celebrate #DrinkChenin Day! 17 June 2017

It finally arrived! #DrinkChenin Day!

It is a worldwide celebration of chenin blanc wine – fellow wine lover Nadia Barnard gave a fabulous introduction to it on her blog “Oh, my Feast” – this will give you a detailed background, better than I ever could!  🙂  Link to “Oh my, Chenin Blanc” on “Oh, my Feast”

I also asked some of my vino lovin’ friends what their favourite local chenin blanc is, and this is what they shared:
