Here in California at Herzog Cellars with Motti aka Joseph Herzog. Welcome Mushi. We just tasted the Herzog Lineage Chenin Blanc. Chenin Blanc, if you know me, you know that I have a passion, I'm passionate about Chenin Blanc. We have the Baron Herzog Chenin Blanc. We actually did a reserve Chenin Blanc. Now we did Lineage Chenin Blanc. Why? What is the difference? Our Baron Herzog Chenin Blanc, I would love to switch it over have it this style. Obviously, we can't. We sell it to the masses. People know it. People love the profile and they love the Baron Herzog Chenin Blanc. Actually a great great starter wine. If you want to get into wine, you want to understand the wine, you want to be able to drink the acid, the fruit, the little sweetness, >> [music] >> just that wine is a perfect wine. This is a next step up. I wanted something where you really get the Chenin Blanc fruit, you get the Chenin Blanc tartness, you get all those floral fruit notes coming and jumping at you. There's nothing that says [music] it more than a California Chenin Blanc. I think you always are busy and you promote and you speak about the Rampage the Sauvignon Blanc, the passion fruit. That is in a New Zealand wine. You cannot make that style of wine here in California. The grapes are different, weather is different, >> [music] >> the terroir is different, everything is different. My wine that is that as explosive and as fruit driven and as acid driven and has all that tropical notes is my Lineage Chenin Blanc. Cheers. If you want to know more about it, get yourself a bottle. I think this wine it smells very floral, but on the palate it's high acid, yeah? Like we spoke. I think perfect with sesame chicken. That's what I think right now. So, the nice thing it would because again it cuts through the fat. You speak about We spoke about this actually when we were having Chinese food. Yeah, that's what came to my That's what came to my mind. >> Now, what has typically you have a greasy food and you have a wine that doesn't have all that acid, it just gets lost. It just I'm going to sound like Mushi Maya for a second. Sounds like you have greasy pipes and you have it just goes right through it and nothing it you don't get to be able to taste it. Just slides down the slide, right? The acid is almost that okay, it stops you it cleanses your palate, it opens your palate on your tongue, on your mouth feel the tenderness. You get all that from something that is high that's brighter. We call this a bright wine. This is bright, so you're getting the floral notes on the nose. You're getting the jasmine, you're getting the tangerine, you're getting the pear, you're getting all that and then you get the melon and all that and So, if [music] you're not if you don't know what we're drinking is the Herzog Chenin Blanc. Next up. I get it Mushi Maya. Mushi Maya. I get it Mushi Maya. Mushi Maya.
