Lionel Faury Condrieu Le Mornieux 2021 (750ML)

96 DE / 93 WS / 17 JR

Intense violets on the nose, this is hypnotically aromatic. Very full-bodied and generous, with delicious peach fruit. Has a sense of sweet ripeness on the palate that's balanced by acidity and salty extract. This has real depth and will satisfy Condrieu lovers. La Berne was not bottled separately this year due to frost.—Matt Walls, Decanter

An exuberant, fragrant white, with melon, nectarine and peach flavors that are juicy and fresh on the glossy palate. Shows savory green herbs that march through, while clementine-laced acidity brings a zesty edge and drives the succulent finish. Delivers smoke, flint and pretty floral highlights that cruise alongside salted buttercream hints.-Kristen Bierer, Wine Spectator

Tasted blind. Ripe fruits on the palate – banana and peach Melba. Good intensity and concentration with good energy, acidity and freshness as well through the wine. A nice, fresh and concentrated finish. (AC)--Alistair Cooper MW, Jancis Robinson
