Not surprisingly (given this high quality vintage in Condrieu), the three 2010 Condrieus are all spectacular. The 2010 Condrieu exhibits lovely lychee nut, honeysuckle, apricot and orange rind notes, medium to full body, good minerality, terrific acidity and a luscious finish. It should drink well for 3-4 years.
Perret has long been one of the northern Rhone's finest producers of white wines, and over the last decade he has also raised the quality of his red wines as evidenced by these two vintages of St.-Joseph. Unfortunately, this is not a large domaine, and the Perret wines can be difficult to find.
