Oak lovers, this Condrieu is for you. 100% new oak but shockingly well integrated. This is the softest and butteriest of the bunch. Personally I maybe wouldn’t choose it but I can think of a good many of my friends who would love it. And it’s not bad for a change!

We had the 2017 Vintage on 12/5-6/22. A floral bouquet. On the palate, stone fruit, honey, white peach and apricots. A full bodied wine that is well balanced. Nice mouth feel. Truly different from a California Chardonnay.

We had the 2017 Vintage on 4/10-11/22. This full bodied white has tastes of apricot, melon and honey suckle. Different from a California Chardonnay.

This wine is medium lemon. It has nice clarity and slow-moving tears.

On the nose, this wine has a pronounced intensity of youthful aromas, including, primary notes of ripe peach, papaya, also rose, chamomile, and honeysuckle, with secondary notes of vanilla and buttercream.

On the palate, this is a dry wine. It has medium(-) acidity, a medium(+) body, high alcohol, and medium(+) intensity of flavors consistent with the nose. The finish is medium(+).

This is a Viognier wine from Northern Rhône, France. It offers beautiful floral and fruit aromas. It is aromatic. It has a waxy / oily mouthfeel.

E. Guigal, Condrieu. Vintage 2017. ABV 14.5%.
