Tasting - "Baumann Gentil Classiq 2012"

Name: Baumann Gentil Classiq
Variety: Reisling
Region: Alsace
Country: France
Year: 2012
Price: $17
Winery Review: "A delicious and fresh blend of Riesling, Pinot Blanc, Muscat, Gewurztraminer, and Pinot Gris. Light aromas of fresh fruit and delicate white flowers start your journey, followed by crisp flavors of stone and citrus fruit. A well balanced acidity on the dry finish ends this French blend beautifully." - Vintage Cellar


My Review: The original smell was actually kind of soapy, almost like a buttery floral smell.  It was very pleasant on the nose.  The taste was very sharp, citrus-like.  Specific flavors that really jumped out at me was a pineapple flavor.  Overall this wine was alright.  It was a nice tasting wine, but not one of my favorites.
