Typical young Condrieu.
Quiet floral bouquet with a slight acidic vein lending it more structure next to the Janrôde from the same producer.
Both are stylistically different but quite similar in quality, so it’s up to personal preference.

This Condrieu from Jamet had lactic overtones, so I refrain from ranking it. Seems to be some issues during fermentation. Certainly very good material under the weird bouquet.

Compared to the Pigeonnier from Garayt, it’s more powerful with a touch honey, therefore not as structured.
I would enjoy both Condrieus in there first 2-3 years after bottling to catch them in there flamboyant youth.

Quite interesting bouquet which led us more towards Australia than northern Rhône.
The bouquet had a slight minty touch, dark chocolate and a little coffee (dark roast).
Medium to full bodied the palate is coated by nice, smooth tannins.

The Sotanum is still the benchmark for the wines of Seyssuel.
Combining finesse and precision the bouquet convinces with dark cherries and Szechuan peppercorn as well as a touch of vanilla.
The palate convinces with fine tannins. Should easily age for 1-2 decades.

Somewhat funky nose and it seems, as if there is a slight secondary fermentation going on.
Besides this, there is sour cherry and some herbs. Not sure how this will develop.

Great Côte Rôtie.
The Dédicace comes from the younger grapes of Nicolas from les grand place.
The bouquet has dark cherries and raspberries as well as some rose pedals and white pepper.
The wine is quite young but the sweet and delicate tannins make it already enjoyable.
Overall a great PQR. I would wait 3-5 years and than enjoy the wine over the next 2 decades.

Absolutely brilliant showing tonight.
Fully mature the bouquet has some cigar box, darker fruit, orange zest, slight white pepper and a little truffle.
Quite ethereal with perfectly melted tannins but still a wonderful structure. Should easily stay at this level for another 5-10 years, no need to hurry.

Absolutly gigantic wine, obviously right now more or less an infanticide right now. I would not touch another bottle for at least 5 years.
Speaking so, we still did and had a very dark wine with a bouquet of dark fruit, meaty smoky notes, dark chocolate and a whiff of finely grinded white pepper.
The palate is just amazing, utterly intense, mouth coating smooth tannins.
I guess this wine will really sing from 2028+ onwards and develop for 2 decades from thereon. Even now it's quite intriguing.

This is more about potential, since this wine is in its embryonic phase.
The bouquet offers typical Cornas notes which you get offen with Syrah on granite. Besides the darker cherries, there is olive tapenade, herbs, pepper and cassis.
The palate is quite coiled up and needs at least 5 years to probably get into the first drinking window.
Kudos to Vincent, this is a legendary Geynale in the making.
