A true master of the Rhône Valley, Aurélien Chirat expertly tames the steep slopes of Condrieu and Côte Rôtie with remarkable skill. In recent vintages, he has been guiding Vignobles Chirat towards excellence, expanding the vineyards with both talent and care.

Floral and delicate, the 2023 white Condrieu Les Chays offers a complex and beautifully defined bouquet. Aromas of broom, wisteria, bergamot, and orange peel create a well-balanced aromatic profile without being overwhelming. The graceful, airy palate showcases a measured and precise dimension of Viognier, perfectly coherent, with juicy, vibrant fruit, accentuated by the fine bitterness of granite. This exemplary Viognier pairs beautifully with lake or river fish. Rated 92/100 by the Selection Committee. |
