The mineral-dominated 1997 Condrieu Les Terrasses du Palat reveals peach, apricot, and honeysuckle aromas in the moderately intense nose, fine elegance allied to power, and surprisingly crisp acidity for its full-bodied, ripe style. Close to outstanding, it should be drunk over the next 2-3 years. Importer: Eric Solomon, European Cellars, New York, NY; tel. (212) 924-4949
