Georges Vernay, Condrieu Coteaux du Vernon 2010, 75cl

"As it is in nearly every vintage, the spectacular 2010 Condrieu Coteau de Vernon is one of the top wines of the appellation. From a fabulous site of pure granite, this cuvee gives up notes of a liqueur of crushed rocks intermixed with white peaches, honeysuckle, pineapples and apricots. Deep and full-bodied with loads of fruit as well as a multidimensional, layered mouthfeel with great freshness and vibrancy, this profound Condrieu should drink well for at least 3-4 more years.  This iconic estate, long known for its splendid Condrieus, can also do brilliant work with red wines. The Condrieu portfolio is superb."  97/100 Robert Parker, The Wine Advocate, Dec 2012
