Well balanced, quite impressive and complex Condrieu. Aged for 8 months on the lees, 15% new oak, the rest in once and twice used oak. Medium golden colour. Intense aroma of melons, acacia, white peaches, lychees, candied hints. Full body, rich and silky smooth with medium acidity and medium flavour expressiveness of concentrated fruits and honeyed touches.

87p is way too low, for this very good white, but the price level of 40-50 euros per bottle then again is way too high - which is often the case for Chapoutier. We drank this hottle over 5 days. Best on day 3, 4, 5, indicating a good life ahead. Fresh, sufficciently sweet in the finish, and nice tones of cidre, green apple, mineral and honeysuckle on the palate.

Stavanger Vinmesse 2022 (Stavanger): Minerals, lemon, apples and flowers on the nose. Fruity with a good mouthfeel. Balanced acidity. Nice length. Good wine.

By the glass. Monocorde nose with notes of peaches and apricots in a unidirectional tone. Also aromas of jasmine and orange blossom that bring charm. On the palate, these stone fruit echoes are repeated with a fresh mineral finish. Simple but attractive.
Por copas. Monocorde nariz con notas de melocotones y albaricoques en un tono unidireccional. También aromas a jazmín y azahar que le aportan encanto. En boca se repiten esos ecos de fruta con hueso con un fresco final mineral. Sencillo pero con atractivo.
