“An exceptional vintage, full of depth, balance, and richness”
“Made from grapes grown on old vines up to 70 years old, the 2024 Condrieu Coeur de Roncharde opens with pronounced notes of vanilla, apricot, ripe peach, and honeysuckle. Full-bodied and round, this expressive 2024 wine is already showing its full potential in this early tasting, and concludes with marked clarity and precision on a savory finish.” (Vinous 2026)

About the wine:
A light, floral style with pronounced notes of spicy oak, good intensity, and refreshing acidity, without being overly concentrated. A medium-bodied wine that is very pleasant to drink and offers a lovely purity. A classic Roncharde. From the granite-rich “Le Roncharde” vineyard, located just above the Côte Chatillon. Seventy-year-old vines, malolactic fermentation completed.

About the estate:
Tucked away on a small cul-de-sac in the heart of the village of Condrieu, Domaine Niero comprises just nine hectares of vineyards: four in Condrieu, two in Côte Rôtie, just over one in Saint-Joseph, and just under one in Crozes-Hermitage. There is also about one hectare dedicated to the Collines Rhodaniennes IGP, planted with both Syrah and Viognier. Although the clean, modern approach is undeniable, the wines are full of character and expressive of their different terroirs.

About the estate:
Since 2004, Rémi has been at the helm of this family-owned estate, which boasts a fine selection of terroirs in Condrieu, with 4 hectares divided into six plots. He also produces several Côte-Rôtie vintages from the Viallière and Bassenon terroirs, as well as a Saint-Joseph vintage, Bois Prieur, and another in Crozes-Hermitage. The wines are serious, rather classic, with aging that sometimes leaves a slight mark on them during their youth.

About the wine:
A smooth, full-bodied palate with a velvety texture, featuring spicy, woody notes and fruit of real richness and opulence. This is no wine for the faint of heart: it is a powerful, concentrated Condrieu.
