Wine is white wine, clear, color is medium gold, medium viscosity, no gas or sediment.
On the nose, it's clean, medium intensity, ripe peach, pear, tropical fruits, white flower.
Palate is dry, no tannin, medium acidity, medium+ alcohol, ripe peach, tropical fruits.
Balanced. Medium length. From warm climate.
My conclusion was Alsace Riesling.
The answer was Trimbach Alsace Pinot Gris 2011.
With hindsight, the wine was so NOT Riesling: no green hue, not enough acidity, not so aromatic.
However, when I was thrown into that spot, I was panicked and forgot all the knowledge I read on books.
I enjoyed my first blind tasting - I saw wine from different angle - but was so nervous.
I've been a tough judge on JC's blind tasting, but from now on, I can be a little nicer. Maybe.
