A much bigger, richer wine, the 2023 Condrieu Les Chaillées De L'Enfer shows ripe orange, honeyed flowers, spice, crushed stone, and even some exotic, orchard fruit notes. It's full-bodied and offers a big, rich, layered profile that has remarkable balance, a dense, layered mid-palate, incredible concentration, and a great finish. This is an insanely good Condrieu to drink over the coming decade. Drink 2026-2036.
James Suckling: 94 Points
A focused, well-shaped Condrieu with texture and tension. Notes of white peaches, white flowers and warm herbs on the nose, following through to a medium body with plenty of volume to the linear mid-palate. Concentrated and driven, with a refreshing bitter-almond character on the citrusy finish. Drink or hold.
Wine Spectator: 94 Points
Leans into the lush style, showing expert balance and drive. Features concentrated layers of plush, fleshy apricot, peach and mango that pulse with saline-laced acidity. White tea tannins frame the rich, zesty finish, which stretches on and on. Excellent. Drink now through 2030. 6,000 cases made, 697 cases imported.
