(at Viognier Beyond the Rhône tasting, 15 Dec 2020)
Drinking Window: 2021 - 2026
The flagship wine of Languedoc Viognier specialist Laurent Miquel, this comes from a single plot on schist and is matured in French oak. Handsomely bottled, heady and sumptuously perfumed, it’s like biting into a perfectly ripe peach. Immediately gratifying, but with staying power too. Exceptionally good value for money.
