Robert Parker

(2019 Vintage Notes)
Viognier
powerful
foie gras
Combining power and elegance, with aromas of citrus, peach, and apricot, “Aux Ruses” is a Condrieu that quickly wins you over. This south-facing vineyard offers a full-bodied, rich palate with a hint of minerality typical of granite soils. A superb white wine for fine dining!
