E. Guigal Condrieu (750ml)

Brilliant clear golden yellow. Intensely flowery (violets), and fruity (apricot, peaches and citrus). Fresh and round. Rich, unctuous and full bodied. Harmonious with light acidity and round fleshy fruits. Delicate and elegant. Condrieu is one of the most exotic and distinctive wines in the world, with its intense aromatics and flavors of apricots, white peach and citrus, and its luscious, almost umami body. It happens to come from a dramatically steep area, and one so small that were it not for several influential people, Marcel Guigal among them, the appellation and its Viognier grape would have been swallowed by history.
