The medium to full-bodied 2017 Condrieu les Terrasses du Palat hints at honey and stone fruit on the nose, then adds a simply seductive texture on the palate. It's a soft, enveloping sensation, plump and silky, yet with great balance, energy and length on the finish. Bravo!

In the same mold, the 2012 Condrieu les Terrasses du Palat is a medium-bodied, juicy and laser focused effort that exhibits mineral-laced aromas of crunchy apple, buttered citrus and spice. As with the other 2012s, it will drink nicely (probably better in a year) for 4-5 years. Made by Francois Villard, with varying degrees of whole cluster fermentation, these wines shows the racier, focused and peppery side to Syrah. Bright acids, notable tannin and pure, clean flavors are the norm here. Given the high level of stem usage, the vast majority of these will benefit from short term cellaring.
