June 5, 2020 - Deep gold color. Aromas and flavors of mango, yellow peach, apricot, tangerine, and slight touch of petrol. Nice minerality (wet stones). Floral nose of white flowers (jasmine, honeysuckle). Medium-plus acid, high alcohol, full body.

May 16, 2020 - Amazing golden Color. A nose full of nuts, honey, mandarins, orange, citrus, very interesting. Med- acidity, Med alcohol, Med body, Med flavor intensity, Med finish. All of the flavors are there, very nutty and sweet, noticing dried fruits, the wine is quite thick, almost evolving into a dessert wine, with qualities of grand marnier. Truly interesting how this wine developed.

April 8, 2020 - Medium lemon Color, very sweet and floral nose, pronounced, a bit of smoke and toast wood as well. Med+ acidity, Med flavour intensity, Med alcohol, Med body, Med- finish. I like the round structure, great balance between acidity and flavor, nose is slightly better than mouth tough. Overall great condrieu from a TOP producer - a magic trio together with cuilleron and Gaillard (they have also a wine together called vin de vienne). Recommend all three producers with pleasure!
