Reserve Cardinalys Condrieu Viognier 2009

ESF
9.3

Impressive, really impressive… I’m convinced the highest expression of Viognier is found in this tiny appellation. Bought this in a cave in CDP: showing orange-y gold color and ever evolving nose of rich ripe apricot, white flowers, honey, beeswax, orange and orange zest, lanolin, and more I can’t remember… oily rich w/out being viscous - generous saturated mid palate full of orange marmalade and flowers, just a mouthful of white flowers, musky. Just got better on Day 2. A true gem! — 2 years ago

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée des Jeunes Filles Red Rhone Blend 2004

This is what French wine is all about - 2004 hand carried back from France; pouring into decanter, a reddish-brown golden caramel color sweet to the nose; after 20 mins it returned to a deep ruby red ; subtle, with hints of fruit - cherry, strawberry, cocoa dust and chalk - slight tannins - could go another 10 but delicious now. — 5 years ago
