Château Mont Thabor Luberon Illumine

Consistent with previous bottles. Best served slightly more chilled.

This bottle showed some notes of beeswax and lemon pledge to go along with tart citrus and a bit of honeysuckle. Slightly nutty on the finish. Better with food than on its own.

Consistent with previous bottles. Had a bit of a ripe pear and slightly nutty note. Solid but again a bit lacking on the finish.

As expected, this showed better served a little cooler. Acid seemed more present and just drank a bit more crisp and refreshing overall. Citrus and light stone fruit flavors along with white florals. Solid midweek wine for the price.

Medium straw color. Not overly aromatic but showed some nice white floral notes and a bit of citrus. Similar flavors on the palate with a bit of roundness to the mouthfeel. Medium acidity. A touch of heat coming through on the finish. I would probably serve a bit cooler next time. Overall, solid for the price paid but nothing special.

I can’t think of a white wine drinker who wouldn’t like this. There’s nothing not to like. It’s not too dry, not too sweet, no overpowering notes. If you’re looking for a super oaky wine or a super citrusy wine or a super grapey wine, this isn’t for you. If you’re looking for an easy drinking wine that probably pairs with anything, try this! It’s weirdly intriguing BECAUSE it’s so non-descript, but that’s what makes it good!

Run of the mill, nondescript white.
