CONDRIEU BLANC AOC La Bonnette
This cuvée comes exclusively from the terroir of "La Bonnette" in the Condrieu appellation contrôlée. It is a rich, powerful wine with a scent of lychees, passion fruits and white flowers. It has a lovely mineral character and great fruit definition, traits that often distinguish it from its peers.
100% Viognier on granitic sandy soils with a south-western exposure. Drink within 5 years.
Despite the proximity of Côte Rôtie, the geology is totally different. Here the bedrock is granite and the complexity comes from the variety of other geological elements added over the millennia. In order to minimise erosion, the vines - as at Ampuis - are grown along terraces supported by dry stone walls. Work has to be done by hand, requiring considerable manpower.
