Drop dead gorgeous. Best condrieu I’ve ever had. Silky smooth, but not buttery. More macadamia driven. Light. Cashew and lemon cream. Fantastic!

Very aromatic, very bitter. Ripe fruit. Tasted blind. I thought it was torrontes or Gewürztraminer.

A wine that I crave this time every year. E. Guigal's Condrieu--(2013) white florals layered with clover'd honey tones, lightly browned pie crust & juicy cantaloupe. #certifiablydelish

Textbook Condrieu with peachy stone fruit, elegant floral character, with light oak and mineral accents. Full-bodied and viscous but retains a sense of balance

Not as flamboyant as I remember. A bit more at ease. Still… oily, tropical, honeyed macadamias, tangerine.

Super light in color but complex in flavor. Pithy, apple skin and coconut. Not super acidic, so pleasant.

That has some funk on it! Rich and creamy, lively acidity, Jasmine, honeysuckle and ginger. Rick and opulent
