  With sautéed soft crabs... purrrfect. Lots of complexity and balance. Not sure I can rattle off the flavors, but this is true to the appellation and should improve some with time.

  This is an elegant sophisticated white from Janasse. It’s light bodied with a fruit forward nuance and great texture and mouth feel. It’s a youthful wine with plenty of opportunity to age well and add complexity. The nose is a bit restrained and subtle, but pickup up beautiful notes of white flowers, Nectarine, Pear and hints of Honey Dew melon. The palate falls in line with the same notes I found on the nose with a nice vibrancy and viscous texture. The finish has a slight minerality which I liked.
  
  This is a very nice wine that will age well.

  Monthly Tasting Group HWS #140; C9duP Blanc (By AH): In the bouquet white fruits, anise and green herbs. On the palate pear, almonds and other nuts, beautiful acidity and some pleasant sweetness. Beautiful wine. 91+
