Leading off the 2021 Condrieu, the 2021 Condrieu Les Chaillees De L'Enfer is brilliant stuff, with a pure, crystalline nose of white peach, apricots, and honeyed flowers. It has a beautiful sense of minerality on the palate, medium-bodied richness, terrific density and depth, and just a beautiful overall layered, seamless, balanced profile. I love it today, but it will ideally be given just a year or two and enjoyed through 2031.

Cropped at a minuscule 8 hl/Ha, the 2021 Condrieu Les Chaillées de L'Enfer is delicious. Prominent apricot, ripe pear, peach, honeysuckle, melon and banana are all nicely delineated. Medium- to full-bodied, this exuberant 2021 captures sufficient freshness to balance out its pronounced flavor concentration. This should drink splendidly right out of the gate.
