Run for more than 20 years by third-generation vigneron Christine Vernay, Domaine Georges Vernay is an iconic Northern Rhône estate, famous for its Côte-Rôtie and Condrieu. Le Pied de Samson is made from 100% Viognier from VDP Collines Rhodaniennes. This is a delicious mid-weight wine with lovely richness of perfectly ripe stone fruits but balanced by superb elegance and freshness. Best drunk young, this is basically an exceptionally good value mini-Condrieu.

Vinous
Light, shimmering straw. Vibrant and sharply focused on the nose, displaying fresh citrus and orchard fruit aromas, along with suggestions of succulent flowers and dusty minerals. Sappy and incisive on the palate, offering intense Meyer lemon, peach and pear flavors that deepen steadily with air. In a rich yet vibrant style, with a persistent finish that echoes the floral and mineral notes. As usual, this is a dead ringer for an elegant, top-notch Condrieu.Josh Raynolds1st May 2020
