Review:
“Grilled peach, roasted pineapple, spice, and toasted bread notes all emerge from the 2020 Condrieu Heritage, a brilliantly balanced, medium to full-bodied Condrieu that does everything right. With both richness and freshness, it blossoms with time in the glass and offers terrific purity as well as a touch more minerality. It’s terrific.”
