             Alcohol 11.9% by Volume, Produced and Bottled by
              Chateau Ste. Michelle, Woodinville, Washington

                         $6.06  Tasted January 1985

Exceptionally light and enjoyable.  Bright, clear, clean, medium yellow.
There was ample fruit and good floral qualities in the aroma.  The wine was
moderately thin, but with good depth for this type.  Flavors were very well
balanced, with nice sugar and acid.  The appropriate fruity flavor of a
Chenin Blanc was present; the wine was light, crisp, and slightly sweet.  A
very good value for the money.  If you are looking for a wine that you could
enjoy drinking all night, by itself or with dinner, try this one (just get
more than one bottle, you'll need it).  It is quite light and flavorful.

                            High Recommendation
