    April 25, 2017 - Very good.
    Clear, pale, gold with legs.
    Clean, medium intensity fully developed nose of peach, lemon, yogurt and almonds.
    Dry, medium (+) acid, medium (+) alcohol (13.5%), medium (+) body, medium flavour intensity with lemon, peach, almonds, cream and an oily texture.
    Very good, quite complex, perhaps over the hill and ruining what would have been an outstanding bottle 2-3 years ago.
    Drink now, certainly not suitable for further aging and may already just be a bit too old.
    Cork.

    June 4, 2014 - I love the honeyed florals of Guigal CdR blanc. Good and qpr every year. Honeysuckle and waxed tropical fruits in the mouth. God texture, medium acidity and easy on the mouth despite standard heavy alcohol on the Blanc CdR. No heat on the finish. Very enjoyable as per usual.

    March 24, 2014 - The more I think about it, the more I kick myself in the pants for not getting more of this for $5. Decent fruit with surprising acidity, this rally did well with my fish tacos. Alas, this is the last bottle, but it was likely time for it to go. I doubt this gets any better, but it was Very (very) Good. thedrunkencyclist.com

    February 15, 2014 - Blind tasting ($14.99). Clear light pale yellow appearance. Aroma of pear cider, light to moderate booze, green apple, light lemon blossom, and a bit of tartness. The flavor is definitely somewhat buttery and the alcohol is kind of strong. Slightly tart and acidic. Slightly juicy. Semi-dry. Lots of apple and pear. Some floral notes. I'm not a big fan.

    March 25, 2013 - Paglierino. Al naso note floreali (fiori di campo, ginestra), pera, mela golden. Bocca armonica, sapida, un pò carente di freschezza ma del tutto integra e lunga

    March 23, 2013 - Solid white rhone. Appropriate table wine. A little licorice and faint apricot on the palate. Decent balance. Slight plastic notes.

    January 18, 2013 - Pale lemon colour. Muted nose of oaky and almond aroma, floral and fruity note is barely notable. On the palate, this wine is dry with medium acidity, offering tropical fruit, oak and spice.
    This wine has passed its prime, with its fruity tunes fading, leaving only oaky and slight spice notes. It arouses kinds of emptiness of after drinking this wine.
