Med-full body. Nose - pears right away and honey deeper down. Floral. It's a perfect balance between citrus and sweetness

What a fun wine. Loads of honey with a hint of citrus,melon and pear. Paired with chicken and a tarragon cream sauce. But tasted fantastic with a goat cheese log rolled in an herb de Provence mix. Definitely sweeter than I really like usually, but totally enjoyed this one. Had the 2022 in August of 2024.

Nice, inexpensive wine. Floral and a tiny bit sweet.

Not what I expect--or want-- from a Vouvray. Very disappointing.
