A terrific Condrieu, emanating from 70-year-old vines in the heart of the Roncharde lieu-dit, Nitro's 2019 Condrieu Coeur de Roncharde possesses more richness and minerality than either the Ravines or Chéry bottlings. Crushed stone joins the typical floral and spice notes, backed by ripe apricot notes. Full-bodied and flamboyant, yet with incredible freshness and verve, this ostentatious effort should drink well for 4-5 years.

Along the same lines, the 2019 Condrieu Coeur De Roncharde is slightly more reserved, with beautiful white peach, apricot, and floral notes being grounded nicely by a sense of minerality. With terrific purity, a medium to full-bodied, supple, sexy texture, and a great finish, it's another great Condrieu to drink over the coming 4-5 years.
