A mealy and spiced ripe apple nose. A rich and unctuous palate with a note of nectarine and apple skin. Textured and with a lingering finish. Appealing and shows good restraint for the vintage.
Great concentration and length, it's a flamboyant, oak-influenced expression, one with real intensity and concentration. Lovely sense of purity, this is a new cuvée for Niero since the 2018 vintage.

This domaine is particularly adept at making whites – in fact, it’s one of the rare northern Rhône domaines making more white wine than red. The Condrieu are brilliant across the range, and this is its newest cuvée, first released in the 2018 vintage. It’s a single-vineyard wine from 75-year-old vines in lieu-dit La Roncharde in the north of the appellation, just above the Côte Chatillon. Matt Walls: Neat, citrussy style with vibrant acidity...

Pear and melon hints to the peach fruit, and plenty of floral notes alongside the spicy cinnamon oak. Typically voluminous and generous on the palate, with plenty of rich opulence to the texture.
Geurige en soepele Zuid-Franse witte wijn, met de geur van rijpe perzik en appel. De smaak is mild, soepel en fris. Prima wijn bij vele koude of warme voorgerechten, eventueel ook bij een milde kipschotel.
