  interesting bouquet, maybe melon. Pleasant palate with lemon and citrus with nice acidity. Paired very well with scallops & risotto. Clean and refreshing. Very good QPR.

  light, almost clear yellow in color, this wine is a bit more substantial than it looks. This bottle on first opening had a huge amount of grapefruit on the nose and on the palate. this seemed to dissipate with some time in the glas. Otherwise there was some orchard fruit and decent acidity and a fairly rich mouth feel. Finish is a bit short and almost without merit. I had this along side a 2014 Orenga de Gaffory Cuvee des Gouverneurs against which it paled by comparison in body, richness and depth of flavor.

  Pale, quite a bit of spritz; wet stone, crisp, vibrant, quietly floral; refreshing acidity provides an attractive bite, sappy, well balanced with a good weight; finishes in a dry, positive manner. A good match for lemon sole. Drink young.

  Light, pale, almost clear yellow with a green tint...apricot and apple on the nose, with great acidity giving the wine a nice bright mouth feel with still a more viscous wine than the color would suggest. On the palate I get apricot on the attach and green apple on the mid-palate and a relatively vacant finish. Nice QPR and a good pairing for fish or chicken. Probably best with an analog dish that lacks acidity and is sweet or buttery.
