Alcooleux, cire d’abeille, fait penser à un hydromel, aucun fruit, aucune acidité, on dirait un sauternes mort. Décevant pour un Domaine des Tours, qui a si bonne réputation. Je ne l’aurais tout simplement pas mis en marché, ça affecte le brand négativement.

Interesting and exotic, several blind tasters called this viogner for its apricot, yellow peach skin, lavender and acacia florals. To me, the alcohol was a bit showy even at cellar temp on the PnP. This felt a tad hollow on the midpalate, and could use a dose of acidity for freshness. Perhaps I should just drink white hermitage instead?

Mørk strågul. Tung, søtlig, moden duft. Honningtoner, et snev av spearmint, appelsin og grapefrukt. Fyldig og oljete i anslaget, kraftig og rik, utviklet. Lav syre og kan virke ‘flabby’, men stor munnfølelse og lang, ‘tung’ smakskurve. Det er noe ‘såpete’ på smak, gewürztraminer-roseaktig, parfymert, krevende. Heftige greier, veldig morsom å smake, men et glass er nok.
