Maison Nicolas Perrin - Condrieu 2011

14/20

RVF

Rating: RVF 14/20
This Condrieu has a very aromatic, exotic nose with citrus notes and a hint of floral. On the palate, the attack is clean and the wine is well-balanced. A white wine that leaves a very pleasant impression and a nice length. Already delicious!

About the estate:

This fledgling wine merchant was born out of a partnership between the Perrin family (of Château de Beaucastel in Châteauneuf-du-Pape) and Nicolas Jaboulet (former director of the family business Paul Jaboulet et Fils). Two big names from the south and north of the valley, who are releasing a small collection of northern wines. The wines are selected from the barrel before malolactic fermentation at the winegrowers' premises, then matured at Perrin, near Orange. This is followed by blending. The style of the whites is precise, dry and straightforward, of a good intermediate level. To date, we prefer the brightness and density of the reds."
