Condrieu
 

Condrieu is regarded as an exceptional but hard-to-find wine. Condrieu is one of the best white wine in Côtes du Rhône. The vineyards cover only 105 hectares. The single grape variety used in Condrieu is viognier.

Condrieu is a full-body white wine, rich in alcohol, but with a strong flavor and round in the mouth. Condrieu exhales apricot, pear and almond aromas.
