Saint Cosme Condrieu 2019
“Swirls of fresh white peach and melon juxtapose toasted notes of biscotti and charred vanilla bean in this lavish Viognier. It’s an opulent dry white with a satisfying heft on the palate, edged by swathes of mint and a perfumed, blossomy finish. Stunning young, the wine should gain savory depth from 2030.” 95/100 (Wine Enthousiast)
Louis’ Condrieu from granite terroirs is a fabulously beautiful, pure white wine! Viognier in the terroir where this grape produces its most magnificent wines. Aged for eight months in used barrels. this gives a wonderfully full-bodied wine with a blissfully complex bouquet of fennel, liquorice, elder, rose, anise… A very big wine that you can drink very young, but which also ages beautifully and then completely changes its character.
