The fruit for this wine comes from one of the oldest vineyards in the Condrieu area. The schist soil brings a lovely, fresh minerality to the white-flower-dominated nose, with just a hint of smokiness in the background. The palate is equally fresh and surprisingly savoury, with a hint of truffle oil adding complexity to the soft and creamy texture. The tell-tale Viognier stone-fruit character is there, but plays second fiddle to the spicy and savoury complexity. There is great length of flavour, making this Condrieu a potentially excellent companion to a pork loin stuffed with peaches and sage.
