Community Tasting Note

Monday, May 4, 2015 - A blend of Grenache Blanc, Bourboulenc, Ugni Blanc and Roussanne.

Pale lemon yellow color. Somewhat closed and underwhelming nose with aromas of vague yellow fruits, some nondescript white fruits, a little bit of sweet pear and a bit chemical note of VA. The wine is medium-bodied, round and somewhat lacking form on palate with flavors of mirabelle plums, some slivered almonds, a little bit of exotic fruit candies and a hint of sweet bread dough. The wine is moderately high in acidity, which keeps the wine well in balance yet doesn't really give much freshness. The finish is somewhat thin and chemical with a bit short flavors of stone fruits, some steely character, a little bit of peach marmalade and an industrial hint of solvent-like VA.

Meh. Dull, simple and underwhelming. Not really that pleasant. At 9,98€ this is a pass.
