Dark yellow color. Flowery nose, taste full of fruit (melon, peach, pine apple), smooth, very good mouthfeel, nice acidity, lovely minerality. Good length during which all characteristics of the wine elegantly come together. Balanced beautiful wine, best Condrieu I ever had.
Deep purple young color, nose black fruit, taste with exploding black fruit and cherries with laurel and nice herbiness. Oaky with a rather hot finish, which I normally dislike, but this drinks very well now because of the beautiful clean fruit.
Dark red color. Nose red fruit and cherries, some smoke. Taste full bodied, nice clean red fruit combined with good minerality and acidity, and some coffee and bacon. Beautifully balanced. Drinks very well now, should become better.
Light yellow color. Full citric nose, a bit buttery. Taste citrus, honey and fresh nuts. Balanced acidity. Mid palate a bit weak. Finish is interesting with spices and a hint of bitterness.
Dark red color. Very fruity nose with leather, mushroom, coffee and pepper. Taste full bodied, black fruit and cherries, nice rounded tannins, excellent length, a bit hot. Powerfull wine.
