2009 Condrieu, Fleurs D'Automne, Domaine Pierre Gaillard

Condrieu, Fleurs D'Automne, Domaine Pierre Gaillard
A fantastically rich and decadent late harvest Condrieu, made from grapes picked in early November 2009, with plenty of selection ( triage) going on in the vineyard, and botrytis evidenced in the grapes. Pierre was especially aware of maintaining the levels of acidity; this he has done with 5 grams providing a perfect foil for the impressive 200 grams of sugar. Viognier, hardly ascetic of temperament in its drier manifestations, is unsurprisingly in its element here, the main surprise coming of course from the freshness at the back of the palate to complement the honied richness at the front.
