This wine is part of a new project involving wine importer Ben Henshaw, wine writer Jamie Goode and Zalto glass importer Daniel Primack, working alongside some of their favourite winemakers.  Their focus is on terroir driven wines from various regions - they call the project the salt of the earth range - and this means factors other than rich fruit coming into play - so minerality, acidity, salinity and texture.  This Chenin Blanc, from a single dry farmed old vineyard, is full of fresh green apples, grapefruit, lime and quince, really crisp and vibrant with that mineral edge running through and a tangy finish.  Balanced, complex, long and textural, it certainly hits the brief and is another cracker in this excellent range.
