Description

One of the appellation's most reliable addresses, and this vintage confirms why. The nose is heady yet focused, offering ripe white peach, apricot blossom and honeysuckle alongside a more restrained mineral thread that keeps the whole thing honest. There is none of the cloying excess that lesser Condrieu can fall into.

On the palate, the texture is rich and viscous without being heavy, with fresh acidity providing genuine lift and direction. Flavours of poached pear, ginger and a lick of almond skin carry through to a clean, persistent finish. Viognier at its most poised and complete.

Andre Perret

André Perret’s passion for vines made the biology graduate return to the village of Verlieu-Chavanay, where he succeeded his father in 1982. The farmland situated on the right bank of the river Rhône, then mainly occupied by fruit trees, was replanted with vine stocks and extended to 13 hectares. Perret’s exemplary Condrieu, Saint-Joseph and varietal wines have flavours and aromas expressing the exceptional growing conditions of the vines and the meticulous attention given to the making of the wine.

Northern Rhone

The Northern Rhône, a prestigious wine region in southeastern France, is celebrated for its exceptional Syrah-based red wines and aromatic white wines. Characterised by its steep, terraced vineyards along the Rhône River, it benefits from a continental climate with hot summers and cold winters, ideal for viticulture. The Northern Rhône is particularly renowned for its powerful and elegant red wines from Syrah, notably from appellations like Côte-Rôtie, Hermitage, and Cornas. It also produces exquisite white wines from Viognier, Marsanne, and Roussanne, especially in Condrieu and Saint-Joseph. The unique terroir, combined with traditional winemaking techniques, imparts distinctive flavours and complexity to the wines. The Northern Rhône offers a remarkable experience for wine enthusiasts seeking some of France's finest and most storied wines.
