WINE | WHITE WINE | RHÔNE | CONDRIEU BLANCBottle of : 0.75L
100% VIOGNIER -
A benchmark Condrieu from the northern Rhône Valley
- This is an elegant, mineral expression of Viognier that demonstrates the precision and restraint Pierre Gaillard brings to Condrieu. The wine balances richness with clarity, offering a compelling study in terroir.
- The fruit character is notably refined—white peach, lychee, and violet emerge with considerable finesse. Rather than overwhelming the palate, these notes weave through the wine with admirable subtlety and definition.
- L'Octroi takes its name from the medieval toll levied upon merchants entering the village of Malleval. The vineyard's south-facing aspect and granite-rich soils impart a distinctive mineral signature to the wine.

In the mouth
The palate is rounded and supple, with a subtle richness that never becomes heavy. Excellent balance between fruit and acidity; the finish is notably floral with a lingering exotic note that extends the experience.
On the nose
The bouquet opens with white peach and exotic fruit—lychee particularly prominent—alongside delicate floral notes of violet. The aromatic profile is both generous and composed, revealing additional layers with time in the glass.
On the eye
Brilliant, pale gold with silvery reflections
Breeding
Nine months in oak barrels with lees stirring
This Condrieu stands admirably on its own as an aperitif, particularly with seafood canapés or lightly sautéed prawns. At table, it pairs beautifully with foie gras (especially with fig preserve), lobster, or langoustine. The wine's mineral backbone and floral character make it a versatile accompaniment to refined seafood preparations.
