André Perret, Condrieu Chéry 2014
/ #65033961
Chéry is among the more classic lieux-dits in Condrieu and is known for delivering wines with both finesse and depth. The characteristic Viognier from this parcel is often distinguished by balanced, aromatic complexity and a mineral rigor that suits the powerful style of the region. André Perret generally works with a combination of steel tank and barrel, which typically provides a slightly spicy, elegant frame for the natural fullness of the grape. 2014 was a year when the harvest featured a relatively cool growing season, which in Condrieu has often resulted in white wines with fresher acidity and more detailed fruit expression compared to warmer vintages. This gives the wine good aging potential, which has retained its nerve and freshness over time, while at the same time unfolding the classic depth for which the area is known.
