Rene Renou, Bonnezeaux, Beauregard 1996 Syrah and the new oak program2. 0cm 95 Points CellarTracker Member Heavenly. Amber in the glass (my husband thought I was drinking a rose). First hits the nose like a sherry, I was worried it might be over oxidized. Has that slight Chenin oxidation that makes it wonderfully nutty. Maybe slightly sweeter than off dry (and sweeter than I was expecting) but still light on the palate, not overly sweet or cloying. Aromas of honeysuckle, orange blossom and orchard fruit.
