2016 Domaine Faury Condrieu

Community Tasting Note

Likes this wine:

Saturday, December 19, 2020 - Pale gold colour. Medium plus intensity and developing.
On the nose intense aroma of dried chamomile and orange blossom, baked and preserved lemon, delicate hint of white peach and melon, butter, cream, hint of nuttiness, preserved orange peel, bees wax.
Dry, medium acidity, high alcohol, full bodied, long finish, medium plus intensity. Very good. Not sure about ageing. My guess would be it has developed a little probably since 2016 but not much. Therefore it has potential to age further, without losing its elegance, body and floral aromas but lacks the complexity to develop much more flavour.
Extremely creamy mouthful and long finish making it a nice drink. I'd hate to ruin its elegance with food.
