94 Points! A brilliant expression of the variety, the 2022 Viognier Art Den Hoed Vineyard has tight, almost reductive aromatics of tart apricots, bananas, and salted citrus. It’s pure, medium to full-bodied, has a gorgeous texture, and outstanding length. Coming all from a site in the Yakima Valley and aged in equal parts concrete and used barrels, it will have 2-4 years of prime drinking. It’s one of the finest Viognier outside of Condrieu. - Jeb Dunnuck
Learn More - Yves Cuilleron Viognier Vin de Pays Collines Rhodannienes Les Vignes d'a Coté 2022$24.98 As low as $22.48Availability:In Stock
The Viognier for this cuvée is sourced from vineyards planted in granite-infused soil in the village of Chavanay. The grapes are fermented with their natural yeasts and done in stainless steel to protect the wine’s freshness. It then sees 6 months in a combination of steel and neutral oak barrels to round out. The result is usually pretty engaging, but in the stellar 2022 vintage Cuilleron absolutely nailed it. Perfectly proportioned, this 14% alcohol white sits comfortably atop the right touch of uplifting acidity. Everything is fresh and expressive, with the subtly meshed peach, honeysuckle and mineral nose a perfect invitation to the peach, pear, spice and faintly honeyed palate.

- Lismore Viognier Age of Grace 2021VM93+$31.98Availability:In Stock
93+ Points! The 2021 Viognier The Age of Grace comes from Sutherland and Bot River, whole bunch pressed with 11 months on the lees using 15% concrete eggs. With pretty white peach and Mirabelle scents on the nose, this takes time to blossom, but it never fully lets go. The palate is medium-bodied with a gorgeous dried apricot, mango and spicebox entry, nothing blowsy here with a very focused, almost understated finish. Excellent. - Neal Martin, Vinous Media

- Remi et Robert Niero Condrieu Cuvee de Chery 2020JD95WA94$64.98Availability:In Stock
95 Points! The 2020 Condrieu Chery is slightly more reductive, yet still has brilliant notes of white peach, crushed stone, spice, and honeyed white flowers. Brilliant on the palate as well, with medium-bodied richness, integrated acidity, and a great finish, it's another stunning wine from this estate I'd be thrilled to drink. - Jeb Dunnuck

- Domaine Gassier IGP Pays D'Oc Embruns De Viognier 2020JD91$13.98Availability:Out of Stock
91 Points! Tasting like a mini-Condrieu (at a fraction of the price), the 2020 IGP Pays D'Oc Embruns De Viognier has lots of tangerine and citrus fruit, medium-bodied richness, a beautiful, fresh, yet still rich and classic Viognier texture, and a touch of spice and minerality on the palate. It’s well worth seeking out and should be enjoyed over the coming year. - Jeb Dunnuck
Learn More - Garon Condrieu La Vieille Maison 2019JD97$49.98Availability:In Stock97 Points! Looking first at the two whites, the 2019 Condrieu La Vieille Maison is totally brilliant stuff, the finest Condrieu I've tasted from this family estate. Awesome buttered citrus, nectarines, honeyed orange zest, white flowers, and a beautiful sense of minerality all emerge from the glass. This is followed by a full-bodied, pure, elegant Condrieu that's impeccably balanced, has a clean, crisp texture, and a great finish. It's pure class and up with the big guns in the appellation. Enjoy bottles over the coming 4-6 years. - Jeb Dunnuck Learn MoreHURRY, ONLY 1 LEFT!
