Domaine Georges Vernay
Les Terrasses de l'Empire Condrieu Viognier
Condrieu, Northern Rhône, Rhône, FranceThe wine is spectacular. I can't even imagine what Coteaux du Vernon would taste like. Restrained, balanced. Mango and lychee sticks out. Had this with lobster tail and scallops. Perfect pairing.

More muted and a tinge sweeter tonight? Not as magical as prior bottles. Perhaps the pre- dinner cocktails tainted our palates?

Second bottle in one week. Amazing. White peach, acidity and minerality/spices all perfectly balanced.
