The 1997 Condrieu Lys de Volan was bottled with only a light pad filtration. It is a rich, leesy, Burgundian-styled Condrieu with copious quantities of floral, white peach, and apricot-like fruit. In the mouth, there is a leesy, buttery complexity in addition to exquisite extract and richness. Marvelously well-balanced with well-integrated wood, and enough acidity to provide definition, this sumptuously-styled Condrieu should drink well for 1-2 years.
