One of the new super-stars of the appellation, Yves Cuilleron, who also produces red and white St.-Joseph as well as Cote Rotie, is best known for his dazzling cuvees of Condrieu. In such top vintages as 1994, his Condrieu comes in three styles and sizes. The classical bottling of 1994 Condrieu (30% of which is vinified in small barrels), is a wine of considerable richness, elegance, and style. It offers up the tell-tale tropical fruit, honeysuckle, and peach-like aroma, crisp acidity, and sensational purity (a hallmark of all the Cuilleron wines). It should drink well for 1-2 years. This wine was tasted in September, 1995, from bottle, unless otherwise noted. Prices quoted are based on the current exchange rate of five francs per dollar.
