Opened just prior to dinner. The 2008 Coteau de Vernon pours a deep straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of peach cup with the pears and cherry too. There’s white flowers, honey, fresh mint and other herbs too. Wow! On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and oily. This bottle came across young. A benchmark Condrieu. Drink now through 2038. — a month ago

Medium Ruby color with aromas of berry fruits with notes of dried herbs, citrus and woody spice. On the palate flavors of blackberry, cranberry and cherry with espresso, vanilla and herb tea spice, well balanced with acidity. Fine soft tannins on a long finish ending with cacao, spices and slight earthy character. Very nice! — 2 years ago

I’m allowed 1 to 2 glasses of wine per day. Yikes. If limited intake required this is a good choice. — 4 years ago

One more time a month after. Prior notes apply.
3rd wine of my family-organised blind tasting for my 40th birthday (tomorrow). I happened to buy this wine a few weeks ago after it had been bought by my wife and daughter for the purpose of this tasting and I saw some smiles and question marks on their faces while buying this which I didn't understand on the spot.. now I get it. I called this a saint joseph... close enough. Well, not according to my daughter who said I failed badly... have kids they say... — a year ago
