2020 vintage. Viognier often lacks acidity and should therefore be drunk young, but this must be the tightest Condrieu I have ever tasted, with an energetic acidity keeping the exotic richness in check. Seems surprisingly ageworthy for Viognier (like Château Grillet) and therefore very intriguing. Long finish. — 4 years ago
Nydelig! Drakk uten mat, men denne passer nok godt til grillet lam eller lignende! — 7 years ago

Condrieu 2020 "Séries Limitées" Castel. Light golden colour. White peach, pineapple, nuts and flowers. Exotic fruit with the typical Viognier bitter structure. In my experience Viognier doesn't age very well ( Château Grillet being the exception), so I'd rather drink this now, while it's shining. Abv. 13,5%. — 5 months ago
Officielt en rosé. Men dufter som en Vin Jaune. Eller som en skotsk whiskey uden røg. Krydret. Træ, men fra ældre fade. Uldsokker. Og syre. Høj syre. Skøn madvin, som vi drak til grillet hummer. — 5 years ago
Lives up to the vintage! Deliciously ripe and balanced, fab with comfort foods. — 9 years ago

Chateau Grillet 1996
フランス五大白ワインの1つ。ヴァン・ジョーヌだけを造るAOC。ヴァン・ジョーヌは長期熟成のポテンシャルがあるだけあって、90年代は激美味でした。まだまだ熟成で良くなる。 — 7 years ago

This is really very nice. Balanced, respectable, calm and soft. Smooth mouthfeel, silky tannines, plummy fruit. Peak drinking, I’d say.
Mr. Rolland was consulting… RIP.
