Tasting Notes

Michel Tardieu, one of France's esteemed winemakers, is celebrated for his elusive, highly sought-after wines, even though he lacks his own vineyards. In 1996, alongside his friend Dominique Laurent, he co-founded the Tardieu-Laurent winery. Their vision was straightforward yet profound: procure the finest grapes from select plots tended by exceptional winegrowers and create exceptional wines in their own cellar. From northern appellations like Condrieu and St. Joseph to the iconic Châteauneuf-du-Pape in the Rhône, Tardieu-Laurent fulfills every oenophile's desires. Tardieu's Viognier is crafted with an emphasis on longevity. It boasts a rich concentration of yellow fruits like peach, apricot, and mango, complemented by nuanced notes of honey and nuts. The palate is remarkably full and creamy, showcasing intense minerality and a multifaceted, multi-layered character. This Condrieu exudes power and remarkable potential.

Reviews and Accolades

AWARDS & ACCOLADES

Bettane et Desseauve - 18/20

94

Jeb Dunnuck

The 2018 Condrieu is straight-up classic stuff, displaying lots of exotic peach, flowers, and pineapple notes as well as a medium to full-bodied, bright, fresh, yet textured style on the palate. It has subtle oak and spans the gap between the uber-rich and the leaner versions of Condrieu.

Wine Spectator

Aged half in new oak and half in second use oak, the 2018 Condrieu is smoky and cedary, yet it still pumps out Viognier's floral aromas. It's medium to full-bodied, with a lovely, silky texture, finishing plush, rich and long, with echoing spice notes.
