This refined and aromatic cuvée leaves a charming and lingering saline sensation on the finish making it ideal for pairing with seafood dishes.
More infoThis wine hails from one of the northernmost terroirs in the northern Rhône valley. Julien Pilon cultivates his Viognier on schist and quartz soils and harvests by hand. During vinification, the wine undergoes malolactic fermentation and is aged for 10 months on its lees in barrels (30% new wood). It reveals a delicate, fresh nose with floral, fruity and mineral notes. We particularly enjoyed the concentration on the palate and the long finish with saline notes.
About the Producer Julien Pilon
After learning the winemaker's craft in various vineyards in the Roussillon region and Spain, Julien Pilon returned to his native Condrieu. Since 2010, he has been producing white Saint-Joseph using grapes which he buys in and then vinifies in his own cellar in Condrieu. In addition to buying 7 hectares of grapes, he has 1.5 hectares of his own vines. These white grape varieties (Marsanne and Roussanne) grow on local granite soils and produce wines of great finesse which are also very precise.
