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.

The 2022 red Côte Rôtie La Rose Brune is a gem of power and substance. Marked by spices, a hint of cocoa, and sophisticated oak that will need time to refine and integrate, it presents a mature, serious, and concentrated profile with high-quality tannins. Patience is key: a year in the cellar will be necessary before enjoying it over the next decade or beyond. Rated 93/100 by the Selection Committee.
