Initial aromas of peaches, honey and honeysuckle flowers. Sweet honeycomb notes on the palate - like a spread we have in Australia called Golden Syrup - also Apricots - a lot happening. This wine is all about intensity but not in the least bit cloying. Textural on the palate but remaining fresh. This Condrieu is intriguing and delicious. Luscious yet finishing dry with a skinnsy bitterness. A wonderful wine which my wife, Barb loved.

Very authentic style, that's how Viognier should taste like, lovely restraint stone fruit and subtle toast; very balanced and fresh with great mineral purity. Perhaps not as intense as the top offering 'Chery' but very stylish already. Excellent effort for such a difficult-to-cultivate variety.

Pale gold. Nice vanilla at first. Then Crazy high concentration of ripe yellow peach, nectarine, passionfruit. Loads of jasmine and white flowers. The palate is balanced and mineral (surprisingly!) highly viscous but. It overly unctuous on the finish. It my style but still great, “important” wine. Great to drink on its own or with some white meat

Viogner con magnífica evolución. Madera muy integrada que toma un segundo plano y cede la relevancia a la fruta procesada: mermelada albaricoque, brioche, especias dulces al fondo. Acidez y frescor. De lujo tras 6 años.....
