Christine Vernay, an unrivaled figure in Côte-Rôtie and Condrieu, a true virtuoso of Viognier and Syrah, presides over one of France's most esteemed domains. Earning top accolades from the most distinguished critics, some even dare to rank her wines alongside the likes of La Romanée Conti or Ausone...
Born from a pristine environment and cultivated through organic principles, these wines represent the pinnacle of these awe-inspiring hillside terroirs, marked by an unwavering pursuit of finesse. Condrieu and Côte-Rôtie yield opulent materials, arguably among the most refined in their respective appellations. These two cuvées exemplify this pinnacle – make sure not to miss them. |
