The brilliant 2011 Condrieu Les Vieilles Vignes de Jacques Vernay comes from a parcel of vines planted in 1948. It is a profound, barrel and foudre-aged, exceptionally rich, honeyed Condrieu revealing notes of orange marmalade, tangerine oil, white peach, honeysuckle, mango and exotic Asian fruits. This stunning, full-bodied, deep 2011 is an amazing effort to enjoy over the next 4-5 years. -Robert Parker

Vivid yellow. An exotically perfumed bouquet displays scents of poached pear, honey, smoky herbs and lemon zest. Rich but energetic on the palate, offering spicy orchard and pit fruit flavors and a wallop of tangy smoky minerals. Leaves a subtle note of licorice behind on the long, sappy and incisive finish.
