Now we're talking! The 2009 Condrieu Coteaux du Vernon ranks up there with some of the greatest Condrieus I've ever had. Deep, rich, full-bodied and unctuous, it offers a kaleidoscope of Condrieu goodness in its honeyed apricot, lychee, crushed rocks, white flowers and sauteed peach aromas and flavors. Now at age 6, it's still as vibrant and fresh as the day it was bottled, yet it's gained even more depth and texture. Given its concentration and structure, if you're so inclined to age bottles, this is the one to pick.
