Domaine Georges Vernay Condrieu Chailles de l`Enfer is a Viognier white wine from the Northern Rhône. This 2018 wine comes from a steep, south-facing terrace where the granite soils are held in place by ancient stone walls. Vernay is the master of Viognier, focusing on tension and aromatic purity rather than the oily weight often found in the appellation. The 2018 season was warm, resulting in a wine of great concentration and exotic aromatics with a broad mouthfeel. It features layers of apricot, white blossoms and a surprising mineral acidity that cuts through the opulent texture and provides a detailed, persistent finish.

Vinous
Pale straw-yellow. Powerful, mineral-accented orchard and pit fruits on the nose; a suave floral nuance builds as the wine stretches out. Sappy, penetrating and seamless in texture, offering vibrant tangerine, Anjou pear and white peach flavors and a sneaky hint of honeysuckle. Shows excellent focus and emphatic mineral cut on the finish, which lingers with outstanding tenacity.Josh Raynolds1st May 2020
