Brilliant pale gold. The perfume (you can only call it that) has intense notes of violets, apricot, white peach, and citrus. Fresh and round on the palate, you feel the fat, the richness, yet the wine is so intensely dry and mineral. A harmony between freshness and fleshy roundness. A remarkable minerality.

Critical Acclaim

93 James Suckling

Brimming with fresh peach and apricot aromas with hints of toast and rose. This impressive Condrieu has excellent balance of fruit, fine tannins and lively acidity on the full-bodied palate. Matured in 30% new oak casks and 70% stainless steel tanks. Drink or hold.

93 Wine Spectator

Reveals ripe kumquat, green plum and pear puree notes that have a glycerol texture on a finely tuned palate, with heather and dried thyme accents. The density builds in this juicy yet restrained white, with finely crushed minerals driving tension throughout a finish that goes on and on. Delicious.

91 Jeb Dunnuck

There's not much to go around (Guigal lost 50% of their production due to frost in Condrieu), but the 2021 Condrieu is a beautiful wine offering lots of variety in its white peach, tart apricot, truffly earth, and floral aromas and flavors. Balanced, medium-bodied, and elegant, in short, it's a textbook and outstanding Condrieu.

91 Wine Enthusiast

With a fresh and floral profile, this wine offers clean aromas of citrus and a captivating bouquet of white rose, chamomile, lilac and violet. Balanced with firm minerality, it presents a textured palate featuring white tea leaf, ripe white peaches, white peppercorn and a long stony finish.
