Maison Bouachon – Les Tourrays 2016 – Condrieu

The nose is fresh, elegant, fruity and offers a slight richness / fleshiness. It reveals notes of pear, crushed peach and small notes of passion fruit associated with touches of apricot, fresh citrus as well as touches of vanilla, zest, flowers and racy minerality. The palate is fruity, fresh, well-balanced, a bit tight and offers tension, an acidulous / juicy frame, finesse as well as a good structure. On the palate this wine expresses notes of ripe lemon, litchi and small notes of nectarine associated with touches of exotic fruits, rose as well as discreet hints of fresh apricot, racy minerality and an imperceptible toasted touch (in the background). Discreet tannic sensation on the finish. Good length.
