Yves Cuilleron a Chavanay
Vertige Condrieu Viognier

Condrieu with excellent age development #2011 ; the #apricots ; nice wine, not too over-the-top for viognier; compact but unctuous (word that describes viognier texture; otherwise slippery); top exponent of blancs in the Northern Rhone is Yves. #uncorkedandcultivated #wineandfoodtour #france2015 #condrieu #viognier #slippery

Not my favorite AOC and grace is not a word that typically comes to mind with Viognier, but this one shows a quiet intelligence.

@Delectable Wine This is the Verlieu lieu dit. No where else can this be done.

Absolutely delicious. Beautiful gold, full bodied, great acid - flowers, mint, apricot, lemon, honey. Nice long finish with a touch of orange rind.

For condrieu and my palate, I wouldn't let this get any older. On the nose, tangerine, honeysuckle, vanilla, almond so ripe and lovely. On the palate, good acidity, serious oak, tangerine, honeysuckle, and lemon. Good density, but vibrant and juicy on the finish.
