This Chenin Blanc is from the Loire region of France. Chenin Blanc is a distinctive grape that pairs with many different foods including pasta, chicken, pork and seafood.
My journey to complete my WSET level 2 and my WSET 3 certifications was populated with many tastings and bottles of fine wine. In the older posts, read about my journey in this blog that featured wines in both of the courses. Now that I have completed my WSET 3, I now use this as a place to review and talk about different wines that I am currently drinking as well as wineries that I visit in my new role as a private Wine Tour Guide.
