Note: I use a rating scale for which 85 represents a very good wine.
As Collector1855 noted . almost watery, but not really. Delicate and light, with a hint of fullness. These could go for a few more years, and I have 3 more -- I will revisit in 3-5 years.

At a Commanderie de Bordeaux dinner. Medium light yellow. Discrete nose of apple, grape stalks, minerals. very delicate on the palate, almost a bit watery on the mid palate, no heat of 2003, very good freshness.

(Blind) Klar, strågul med svakt hint av grønt. Mineralsk, nesten kruttaktig på nese med toner av sitrus og nesle. Klar, fast og fokusert frukt med fin konsentrasjon og frisk syre. God lengde.

Light gold color, buttery nose, buttery and vanilla taste but a hint of minerality is here. A good and nice wine but not very complex and the oak was too strong...

Served at 43 degrees immediately after opening. Nose of ripe mango and a touch of oak. Smooth creamy texture. Lemon, melon and vanilla flavor. Our last 2003 Bordeaux Blanc was a Carbonnieux and we found it painfully lacking in acidity. Not robust acidity here either but enough to get the job done. A comfortable bottle.
