Tempier Tasting @ Joost B. (Netherlands): Pretty wine. Very clean and fresh, but hardly any acidity. So, it fails to keep my attention for a longer time. No real complexity either. Actually, this is quite simple. 14.5/20

Light golden hue. Almost no aroma, even after several days open. Taste of pineapple, pears, and fresh-cut grass with just some light acidity. A decent bottle, but it could have used a bit more acidity to balance the sugar.

Light color with some copper. Beautiful high toned aroma, extremely floral with roses. Good apricot fruit and adequate balancing acidity. Good dessert wine for the price.

Straw color with a bit of a stainless steel look to it. Medium bodied. Orange blossom, jasmine, and notes of forest floor and pine needles on the nose. Silky mouthfeel with flavors of white chocolate, mandarin orange, coconuts and lychees. Not enough acid to balance things out perfectly, but finishes nicely.

Pale color. Discrete nose. Rich in the mouth, of course very sweet but reasonably well balanced with acidity. Lush, complex. Good length.
Robe pâle. Nez discret. Riche en bouche, avec bien sûr beaucoup de moëlleux, bien contrebalancé par l'acidité. Exubérant, complexe. Bonne longueur.
