Coteau de Vernon – Condrieu – 2004

Condrieu is a small appellation in the Northern Rhône, just south of the Côte Rôtie, exclusively producing white wine from the Viognier variety.

Quite a restrained nose – it takes some working at. A fairly classic Viognier mix of peach and mineral notes, with a certain buttery fatness, and a small hit of melon. Very long aftertaste. Going to be great, not yet firing on all cylinders.
