  • By the glass from a freshly opened bottle at Willi’s Wine Bar , Paris .
    Round, rich, exotic touches ripe mango and melon , less focused and more a rich round much of a fruity edge .

  • Brass yellow. Peach with alcohol. Ripe mango. Rich on the palate, some more baked plum and more peach. Some spices ala coriander seed. Finishes on alcohol rather than acid. Best quite chilled. Tried to match it with food that complemented, chanterelle gnocchi day one, and white pizza day three. This reminds me in the broader sense more of an begian trappist beer than another wine.

  • Aromatic nose with pure, ripe peach together with pear, pineapple, honeysuckle, beeswax and touches of grated ginger and nutmeg. Weighty and delicious on the palate with a some grip and a long, toasty peach finish. High alcohol but you'd barely know it. Personally don't see a reason to cellar this for longer but may result in something interesting!

    WSET notes:

    Medium lemon.

    Pronounced on the nose with honeysuckle, ripe peach, pear, pineapple, beeswax, orange zest, nutmeg, ginger. Developing.

    Pronounced and dry on the palate with a touch of toast coming through. Full body, high alcohol, medium minus acidity, long finish.

    Can drink now but has potential for aging.

  • Peach, honey, some minerals. Previous years had a bigger taste explosion, but still very nice wine. Perhaps wait a few years for the next one to drink.

  • Tasting Ground official tasting, 2020 Condrieu (Oinoscent): Vines on crumbly and granitic soil, with mica and schist, on a 3ha single site with south/south east facing exposure. Average age of vines 60yo, yielding about 35hl/ha. Fermentation regime: 1/3 of the production in stainless steel and 2/3 in wooden vats. The wine matures for 12 months with regural stirring of the lees followed by racking. The wine is then preserved on its lees for a year before bottling.
    -//-
    Higher intensity in the nose, more vanilla, ripe fruit, green apple, peach and apricot, a beautiful green fruit layer, everything in balance, a few crushed raw almond and hazelnut.
    In the palate, the wine follows the same profile, beautifully balanced, steely mineral, full body, fresh fruit, tropical hints, also apricot, pear, melon, warmth from 14.50%, long finish.
    Very young to enjoy now, outstanding quality, truly elegant
    Wine of the tasting for most
