The 2021 Condrieu La Combe De Malleval is on another level and brings incredible purity, precision, and class. White peach, white flowers, and some honeyed minerality all define the nose, and it's medium to full-bodied, has a vibrant, clean, fresher mouthfeel, and a great finish. In comparison to the Vieilles Vignes, this always brings slightly more flesh and richness. (95) JEB DUNNUCK
Gorgeously fresh peach and blanched almond on the nose and palate, with a touch of lemon verbena. Full-bodied but not fat, with great energy. The alcohol is low, and there's good acidity, no overt oaking, good line and length. The perfect balance, and very classic, I'd drink this young. All in Stockinger demi-muids, 50% new; you don't notice the new oak, it works extremely well. Just 12.5% ABV. (95) DECANTER
A supple and elegant Condrieu with lemons, herbs and plenty of white flowers and fresh pears. Medium body with fresh acidity. It's well-balanced with freshness at the center and a delicious core of fruits and flowers towards the salivating finish. JAMES SUCKLING
It's pretty hard to go past this. I see this as the kind of wine that Stephane loves. Overall there is a sense of buoyancy to the fruit. It's playful and tantalises with hints of the exotic, little wafts of galangal and wild ginger flower mingle with pomme fruits. Thirst slacking and highly energetic with a wonderful flourish of fruit and a mineral twang that only serves to further enliven the palate. It does broaden out on the finish, adding some flesh and punch before fading away. It's bloody lovely. ROSCOE
