Score 93/100 · Drink 2008-2011, Robert Parker, Feb 2008
The 2006 Condrieu Les Chaillets is superb. A greenish hue to the light gold color offers up notes of ripe peach, poached apricots, crushed rocks, and acacia flowers. Broad, smoky, luscious flavors are concentrated with good underlying acidity. This is a beauty to drink over the next several years. Importer: Rosenthal Wine Merchant Ltd., Pine Plains, NY; tel.

Yellow-gold. Stony, leesy pear and white peach aromas are precise and fresh, and complicated by oak spices and minerals. Shows broad pit fruits and smoked meat on the palate, picking up a seductive truffle note on the finish. Has the concentration of a liqueur, but also possesses excellent balance and admirable freshness.
