From vines high in the hills in the commune of Malleval, at the southern tip of Condrieu, Stéphane stresses the importance of retaining acidity in the Viognier grapes, not allowing a hint of over-ripeness or heaviness to sneak in. Picking date was particularly key in 2022, with harvest for this wine starting on 25th August. Aromas are captivating: floral apricot, orange blossom, delicate spice. This leads to a palate that is full bodied, fleshy and richly concentrated whilst having energy and lift. Texture is silky-smooth, the finish having glorious length (for drinking 2024-2027+).
