Ovenbird w M and Ritchie. Mineral. Textured. Fresh. Paired well w ankimo.
The 2012 Condrieu Coteaux du Chery, which comes from one of the most heralded sites in the appellation, is also brilliant (as is his 2011!). The most rich and textured of the lineup, it offers thrilling notes of white peach, crushed rock, buttered grapefruit, flowers and tangerine to go with a medium to full-bodied, layered, yet brilliantly fresh and detailed texture that keeps you coming back to the glass. It too will drink nicely for 4-5 years.
I had a fabulous visit with proprietor Andre Perret at his cellar located just north of Chavanay. Soft spoken, charming and generous, he runs an immaculate cellar and releases up to three Condrieus in a vintage. In addition to his whites, he fashions elegant, almost Burgundian-styled reds from Saint Joseph that warrant more attention.

We finally managed to have a few bottles of Clos Saint Andre to taste. Very elegant and well done Merlot that shows great fruit and acidity, and has velvety and polished tannins. Decant 60 minutes before drinking or hold for 5 to 6 years. Really good wine, recommended. — 5 years ago

Robe: Profonde et concentrée, reflétant la richesse du millésime. Nez: Superbe bouquet où dominent les fruits noirs intenses. Des notes de graphite et de crayon à mine apportent une élégance minérale caractéristique, signature d'un vin de grande classe. Bouche: Attaque riche et structurée. La matière est dense avec une belle longueur en bouche. Les tanins, légèrement râpeux, témoignent de la jeunesse du vin tout en promettant un beau potentiel de garde. L'ensemble est harmonieux et parfaitement équilibré. Finale: Persistante, avec un retour des arômes de fruits noirs et de minéralité. Remarque: Ce vin s'inscrit dans la lignée des grands vins bordelais, d'autant plus intéressant quand on sait que Jean-Claude Berrouet, ancien maître de chai de Pétrus, a apporté son savoir-faire à l'élaboration de ces cuvées. Son expérience dans l'un des domaines les plus prestigieux du monde viticole se ressent dans l'équilibre et la finesse de ce 2019. — 20 days ago
