2023 Pierre Gaillard Condrieu, Rhone Valley, France

2023 Pierre Gaillard Condrieu, Rhone Valley, France

On the palate it is supple and abundant, yet kept in balance by a crystalline mineral thread and carefully controlled oak—seven to nine months in fine-grain French barrels, with minimal new wood, and regular lees stirring—to preserve purity while adding texture. The mouthfeel is creamy and layered, showcasing hints of honeyed apricot, lychee, ginger spice, and a long, stone-flecked finish.

ABOUT THIS WINE

The 2023 Pierre Gaillard Condrieu, hailing from the granite-rich hillsides of Condrieu in France’s Northern Rhône, is a compelling showcase of Viognier’s aromatic elegance paired with minerally finesse. Seven to nine months in fine-grain French barrels, with minimal new wood, and regular lees stirring—to preserve purity while adding texture.

ABOUT THIS PRODUCER

Crafted by Pierre Gaillard—an acclaimed winemaker who studied viticulture in Beaune and Montpellier before managing Côte‑Rôtie vineyards and founding his own domaine in 1981—the wine reflects a deep appreciation for terroir and precision. His estate, now stewarded alongside his children, spans roughly 25 ha in steep, schist soils south of Malleval, with Condrieu specializing in Viognier aged in neutral oak and stainless steel.
