critic reviews

91+/100Anthony Mueller,Robert Parker Wine Advocate

Soft, focused and citrus-driven, the 2021 Hoe-Steen Chenin Blanc offers aromas of yellow cherry skin, lemon rind and dusty white flowers on the nose. Light to medium-bodied, the Chenin compresses on the palate to show a delightful, food-friendly texture and ends with a bright mineral-laced finish. I think it will drink better in time, so be patient.

91/100Neal Martin,Vinous

The 2021 Chenin Blanc Hoë-Steen comes from two hectares of vines planted by massale selection in 1968 on ferrous clay soils with 12 months in neutral oak. It has a well-defined bouquet with light resinous scents, soft touches of Provençal herbs in the background. The palate is well balanced with fine acidity, a dab of orange rind and spice, focused with a texturally satisfying oily finish. Lovely.
