This dry chenin blanc is perfect for summer sipping

Patio, float trip, kids’ sporting events? 2020 Dry Creek Dry Chenin Blanc is as comfortable in a red Solo cup as it would be in a beautiful glass on your dining room table. Most California chenin blanc comes from this vineyard near Clarksburg in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta. Easy sipping and very dry, this light, citrusy and refreshingly balanced bargain should be happily enjoyed during any month without an “r” in it.
