“Bright and juicy, with a hint of green apple offsetting the ripe mango, melon and creamed peach notes. The long, anise- and floral-tinged finish has weight and drive. Drink now. 929 cases made.”-92 points Wine Spectator

Showy and engaging, with mouthfilling yellow apple, green melon, star fruit and peach flavors bouncing through, while light heather and almond notes gently line the finish. Drink now through 2022. 1,350 cases made, 100 cases imported.

FOR THE 2017 VINTAGE
A very rich and ripe style with attractive, apricot and fresh-peach aromas, as well as orange blossom. The supple, focused and delicate texture on the palate carries quite concentrated fruit flavors. Drink now.

The medium to full-bodied 2017 Condrieu les Terrasses du Palat hints at honey and stone fruit on the nose, then adds a simply seductive texture on the palate. It’s a soft, enveloping sensation, plump and silky, yet with great balance, energy and length on the finish. Bravo Francois!
