An outstanding Condrieu from a cool vintage and this wine really cannot express it any better.
Lovely bouquet that has full of apricot/citrus fruits, tons of white flowers and the usual salinity. Wonderful tension on the body that gets resolved with lovely acidity, so fresh (for a Condrieu). So well balanced with power and grace. Long finish with grace rather than brute force.
Drink now to 2030+. Fantastic.

First bottle of this. Chalky, vertical, clean, accents in the minerals, the exotic fruit and Condrieu-character is behind; too young. AD much prefered this to the 2015. On day two, this is quite evolved, much richer - could suggest drinking earlier, rather than later. 91++ #Kandestederne

Excellent Condrieu all flowers and apricots but good acidity to balance the rich palate. Less showy than Vernay but just as fine.

Not rating this bottle as it was pleasant but flat and no life. Or still in its sleeping mode!
