Ratings and Tasting Notes:

(AG=93) Green-tinged yellow. Intense aromas of fresh citrus and pit fruits, saffron and white flowers, joined by a vibrant mineral quality that gains power as the wine stretches out. Fresh and juicy in style, offering pliant nectarine, pear and tangerine flavors that are given a spicy edge by white pepper and ginger nuances. Finishes on an emphatic stony note, showing a hint of bitter orange pith and excellent persistence. (WA=91) Weighing in at under 12.5% alcohol, the 2016 Condrieu la Combe de Malleval is a light to medium-bodied Viognier that showcases the floral, spicy side of the grape. It¡¦s crisp, clean and refreshing.
