Pretty nose of honeysuckle, pear nectar, and honeydew melon. Palate displays pear nectar, apricot, ruby red grapefruit, honey, and peach with a hint of white pepper. High residual sugar, low alcohol, and medium acid. Definitely could use more acid.

Peach nectar, pear, and apricot on the nose and palate. Medium alcohol and medium plus acid. Too much residual sugar and not enough acid. Also lacking is the Vouvray salinity.

Perfectly smooth and does have a touch more sweetness than other Vouvrays. Paired really nicely with spicy Asian dishes.

A smooth and sweet wine, but a bit too sweet for my taste.

Nose: clean, pear, lemon, floral, quince, and honey. Palate- off-dry, medium high acid, creamy mouthfeel but not buttery, ok mid palate. Maybe a little sourness on the finish.

Solid off-dry CB with zippy acidity. Notes of lime/orange with the slightest hint of honey in the background. Solid efforting here by Pete A.
