Note di degustazione
The lightest colored in the lineup, the pretty, lively and exceedingly fresh 2008 Condrieu Coteaux du Vernon offers classic notes of white peach, citrus blossom and a kiss of apricots to go with a medium-bodied, straight, pure and classy feel on the palate. There's enough acidity here to keep it evolving nicely, but I suspect it's best consumed over the coming handful of years.

Pale gold, with a hint of peach skin. A highly aromatic bouquet offers nectarine, tangerine and lemon rind, with intense notes of anise and pungent white flowers. Tangy citrus and underripe orchard fruit flavors gain flesh and weight with air and pick up deeper pit fruit and candied floral qualities. Finishes firm and extremely long, with lingering spiciness and resonating floral and spice notes.
