點(diǎn)擊次數(shù)：7117

A blend from several sites totaling about five hectares, Gaillard's 2018 Condrieu offers up green peach and pineapple notes. It's medium to full-bodied, with tart, citrusy notes on the lingering finish. A solid effort, but it's well off the pace of the stupendous 2017, which readers should continue to seek out and drink with abandon.

Plump and bold in profile, with lots of yellow apple chutney, peach and nectarine flavors pumping through, inlaid liberally with piecrust and lemon curd notes. Lush finish. Drink now through 2021. 1,200 cases made, 500 cases imported.??–JM??Region: France / Northern Rh?ne / Condrieu Select to Add

Gaillard nailed it this year, as his 2017 Condrieu boasts classic floral and apricot aromas. It's medium to full-bodied, with a plump, silky mouthfeel and terrific spice accents of anise and white pepper on the long, harmonious finish. With its lively blend of savory and fruity notes, ample concentration and great length, it should drink well for 3-4 years.

Ripe, with nectarine, tangerine and peach flavors pumping along, lined with bitter almond and orange notes that lend tension and drive through the finish. Drink now through 2019. 1,500 cases made, 450 cases imported.??–JM??Region: France / Northern Rh?ne / Condrieu Select to Add
