Best Viognier I've tasted. Ever. Not a lot of the typical tropical fruit, but still a lot of floral notes in the nose, and lovely taste of honeysuckle. Beautiful wine.

Insanely balanced, and firing on all 12 cylinders. High-wire. Freshness with density, and heady perfumed floral aromatics matched with compelling savory, meaty notes from the variety and noble reduction. A pity I can't afford to drink more of this. You could wait more than a few years to bust into this, but crazy good now.

Unbelievable. Near perfection, if not perfect, Condrieu. Viognier at its finest. Exemplifies Rhone Condrieu.
