The wine region of Condrieu
Mythical northern Rhône cru on the right bank (south of Vienne): exclusive signature Viognier in white — golden robe and opulent signature profile with delicate aromas of peach, apricot, dried fruits, white flowers and a touch of anise and melon, ample, rich, Chardonnay-like textured palate, dry yet with aromas suggesting sweetness. AOC, ~120 ha on south-facing granite terraces at the foot of Pilat, low-yielding clones with small berries, drink young.
The wine region of Rhone Valley
France's 2nd-largest AOC vineyard, two complementary worlds. Northern: pure Syrah in signature reds (Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, Cornas), deep and peppery with blackberry, violet, black olive and smoked bacon notes, exceptional ageing. Opulent Viognier whites (Condrieu, apricot, flowers) and ample Marsanne-Roussanne. Southern: sun-soaked Grenache blends at Châteauneuf, Gigondas, Vacqueyras (candied fruit, garrigue).
The word of the wine: Alcooleux
