Jack Winery

Atlas Peak Pinot Noir 2019

Well, baseball season started. I am not a baseball fan. Too boring. But, hey, never say never and now with the rule changes who knows ….. Jack winery is created by two former baseball players Chris Ianetta and Vernon Wells and we finally tried the 2019 Jack’s Pinot….FANTASTIC!! Spicy, good tannin/acidity structure and complex balanced finish. Was so worried this be another fruit driven ‘Russian Valley’ Pinot. Couldn’t be further from the truth! Had the structure of a Premier Cru from Cote d’Nuit and the earthiness of a Central Otago New Zealand. Pinot. Loved it — 2 years ago

Chery Condrieu Viognier 2013

Pale to mid Gold in colour. Notes of honey, honeysuckle, a little ginger and oxidative notes. On the unctuous full bodied palate Apricots and glaced fruits. Low acid and with Condrieu best drunk probably a little earlier than 7 years. A delicious drink nonetheless - one of the 1001 Wines. Postscript: Chery is considered one of the two most noble vineyards in Condrieu along with Vernon. — 5 years ago

Domaine Chambeyron

Vernon Condrieu Viognier

Wonderful white Rhône—perfumed and heady, with a charming nose of stone fruit (mostly apricot and peach) and flowers. Smooth and viscous mouthfeel and with nice balance of acid, fruit and minerals. Slight tang of bitterness on the finish, which may have been caused by my food pairing. Enjoyed the 2017 vintage with Thai beef curry and rice. — 4 years ago

Mathilde et Yves Gangloff

Condrieu Viognier 2015

After my discovery of Coteau du Vernon from Vernay this Condrieu from Gangloff has been the star of the night. Aromatically explosive on the nose with notes of honeysuckle and peach. In the mouth alcohol is happily controlled for a 2015 ouf! super equilibrium with pot pourri and peach. A jewel of a wine unfortunately they do not make much of it. — 5 years ago

It’s basically DRC Montrachet in Viognier form. Insanely elegant.
