Yves Cuilleron a Chavanay

La Petite Côte Condrieu Viognier 2017

Third and final time trying the 2017 Condrieu ‘La Petite Côte’ from Yves Cuilleron, a wine I first tried in 2020 and described then as ‘liquid sunshine’. At seven/eight years of age, it might not be quite as stunning as it was on that first occasion, but it’s still a gorgeous, joyful wine full of Amalfi lemon, white flowers and nectarine, with an oily, waxy texture and lovely bitterness on the finish. Definitely better young, but holding up nicely, and I’d buy this again. — 6 days ago

Always delicious. Ridge never disappoints. Currants, oak, choco-vanilla and cream. It's a tiny tad thin but absolutely slaps because it feels almost crushable. Almost — a day ago
