The 2017 François Villard Condrieu DePoncins is a characterful white wine from Condrieu in the northern Rhône. The appellation is dedicated entirely to Viognier and is known for its full-bodied, aromatic white wines with a unique combination of ripe fruit, floral aromas, and minerality.
DePoncins is one of François Villard’s most distinctive Condrieu cuvées. The 2017 vintage has now undergone a fine period of bottle aging. As a result, the youthful fruit has given way to a richer and more complex aromatic profile.
De steile wijngaarden van Condrieu vormen het decor voor DePoncins van François Villard. Hier draait alles om Viognier: een druif die geuren van abrikoos, perzik en bloemen kan combineren met een volle, zachte textuur. In deze 2017 kan flesrijping extra nuance hebben gebracht. Neem een ruim glas, schenk niet te koud en ontdek hoe de wijn zich naast een verfijnd visgerecht of gevogelte verder opent.
Ripe peach, apricot, and citrus notes are combined with floral aromas, herbs, and mineral undertones. On the palate, the wine is rich and concentrated, with a smooth texture, plenty of freshness, and a long, aromatic finish.
Serve at around 10–12°C. Pairs well with rich fish dishes, lobster, scallops, poultry with creamy sauce, Asian-spiced dishes, and mild cheeses.
François Villard is one of the well-known producers in the northern Rhône. From his estate, he works with appellations such as Condrieu, Côte-Rôtie, and Saint-Joseph. DePoncins demonstrates just how distinctive and complex Viognier can become on the steep slopes of Condrieu.
