This Chenin Blanc from Mexico's LA Cetto is a shining example of the versatility of Baja California. Grapes are sourced from their San Antonio de las Minas vineyards with vines aged 18-25 years and are fermented at controlled temperature.
Pale yellow with greenish hues, this wine shows bright aromas of grapefruit, mango and orange. The palate has satisfying fruit-forward flavours with balanced acidity and a persistent finish. Try with canapes, seafood and fish dishes, salads, brie or mild hard cheeses.
LA Cetto was founded in 1928 by Italian immigrant Angelo Cetto, who sowed the noble European wine tradition in the fertile lands of Baja California. After further generations took the reigns in Valle de Guadalupe, the first LA Cetto varietal line was launched in 1983. The winery now benefits from a range of soils and microclimates across Valle de Guadalupe, Valle Redondo, San Vicente, San Antonio de las Minas and Tecate, with some plots hosting vines that are up to 80 years old.
