Too much alcohol in this Condrieu. The alcohol overwhelms the other flavors and mars the wine. A disappointment. But at least it was only $39 which is a great bargain for a Condrieu.

Saint Joseph Blanc, not viognier/condrieu.
Nose is peach frozen yoghurt, nice shampoo, brand new bag of beautiful, golden tobacco, sunmaid raisins when you like raisins. Taste is creamy, sunny, long and mineral. Acid takes over for a split second and dries out like a fino sherry. Btl was a low-fill and cork was moldy and it still rocked hard.
