Maximally delicious. Almost too much but not quite so.

Optimal after 45 minutes.

Nose: yellow flowers. The aroma of a perfect peach whose juice is dripping down your chin. A hint of dried apricot.

Palate: unbelievably delicious. Peach. Apricot. Long. Still some mountain stream here. As this opens apricot nectar. Insane.

It’s a lot of wine but it holds together. One of my favorite wines on earth. If you can’t enjoy this, you can’t enjoy life.

This is more youthful than the 2004, yet it also shows more merde than that other Chateauneuf, medium-long finish, I marginally prefer the 2004. — 5 months ago

Apricot City! Nice to compare this with Australia’s top version of Viognier, the Yalumba “Virgilius” which we had yesterday and I preferred - definitely better value for money. Richard Hemming MW thought the Stephane Ogier was light for a Condrieu. 100% Viognier, 33% new oak. — 2 months ago

All of the varietals come through but ultimately this is defined by its Pinot Noir polish and elegance. Light-bodied but with lively complexity of red fruit, spice and mineral. — 9 months ago

Surprise! Was poked in 2016 and it’s still drinking nicely. Lean more muscular but interesting profile of Pinot that mashes you think about it — 9 months ago
