The 2000 Condrieu La Galopine reveals plenty of heady, intoxicating honeysuckle and jammy peach-like fruit. It is medium to full-bodied and intense. This wine is ideal for drinking over the next year. This is an exceptional effort. This is a good commercial example. The significant difference in quality between the outstanding 1999 northern Rhone vintage and the above average yet essentially correct 2000 is dramatically evidenced in Delas's wines. The 2000 red offerings reveal charming ripeness, but also the vintage's softness, lightness, and lack of depth. Importer: Maison Marques et Domaines, Oakland, CA; tel. (510) 286-2000.
