Turns out the master of Cote Rotie is also a master of Condrieu

Such a bright, vibrant and intensely focused bottle. Benetiere has singlehandedly done wonders for my appreciation of Condrieu

Hmm. Dull and lacking verve or intrigue. Viognier, but with a southern expression. Given the excitement around Benetiere, I expected it would extend to the Condrieu, but perhaps not. Judgement reserved, but mediocre showing from this bottle.
