Simmering with power and energy, this distinctive wine leads with its savory side. Bitter green herb, chive, smoke and salty, yeasty notes give way to verbena oil, green plum and melon, all atop a foundation of crushed flint. Concentrated and long, with almond cream, toast and smoke hovering on the finish, which stretches on and on. Drink now through 2030. 76 cases imported.

I totally dig the 2022 Condrieu Le Mornieux, a Viognier of class and substance. Prominent apricot, quince, spring blossom, cedar, acacia, honey and ripe peach all race out of the glass. Rich and concentrated, the full-bodied 2022 checks out with persistence on the stone fruit-laden finish–a powerhouse.
