  Smells much sweeter than it tastes. Very medium and easy to consume. Has a long funky finish, leaving green apple on your palette.
  
  The wine looks yellow gold colored. The legs are fast. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like raisin, lychee and honey. It tastes like citrus and pear - some bitters. The body is medium. The wine has juicy texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has medium acidity.

  Tasting of the Utrecht Wine Society (Utrecht, NL): Tasted blind. Rich colour; slightly oxydative nose, fresh yellow apple, floral lift; vibrant acidity, fresh and lively, oak bitters, hint of sweetness, light finish, good length.

  Admittedly, I tend to favor CdP blanc that show more (some!) Viognier, so this isn't necessarily my style. That being said, I though that the aromatics were restrained and basic and that the palate was too linear for CdP blanc. Basic minerals, and white fruit but none of the rounded unctuous texture and tropical fruit that I typically look for.
