Score 17/20 · Drink 2025-2028, Jancis Robinson MW, Sep 2025
From organic vines on the plateau above the Condrieu climats of La Caille and Mirebaudy, picked at 30 hl/ha. Hand-harvested, vinified in stainless-steel vats, malolactic permitted. Rich and savoury at the same time: pure Condrieu at a lower price! Not sure it’s absolutely good value but it’s a wonderful wine. Long and tingling. (JR)
