“Harvested in early September, Condrieu les Chaillees de l'Enfer 2022 is one of the most remarkable wines of the year, as is often the case. It unfurls in the glass aromas of almond blossom, pear, white peach, chamomile and fresh flowers, giving the sensation of a cold vintage aromatic profile despite the dry, hot conditions of the year. Full-bodied, dense and rich, it's perfectly balanced with a satiny attack, a broad, fleshy fruit core and a long, demonstrative and very elegant finish. It's a terrific wine that transcends the vintage.” Yohan Castaing
Vigour & balance
Les Chaillées de l’Enfer is a wine « with incredible charm ». It blends fruit (apricot, pear, white peaches) with citrus fruits, waxy notes and other more floral (white flowers, rose, violets), more vegetal (mint, thyme, etc.) and spicy (ginger, saffron) notes.
A tight Condrieu with saline and iodine tones, elegant, with a lovely freshness, this is a white of great purity with a perfect balance that could be called closed and tense.
