"An amazing profile for a charming vintage"

“A concentrated, well-structured Condrieu with texture and tension. Notes of white peaches, white flowers, and warm herbs on the nose, followed by a medium-bodied wine with plenty of volume and a linear palate. Concentrated and dynamic, with a refreshing hint of bitter almond on a lemony finish. Enjoy now or celller. ” (James Suckling 2025)

Wine rated (2026 guide) 93/100

5-Star-Rated Estate (Exceptional producers who represent the absolute pinnacle of quality in France and around the world)

About the estate:

Emma Amsellem joined her mother, Christine Vernay, to showcase the rugged hillsides of Condrieu and Côte Rôtie—lands bathed in sunshine when frost doesn’t interfere, as it did in 2021, a vintage Emma isn’t likely to forget since she had just returned to the estate. Despite the weather’s vagaries, the year proved highly successful for the whites, with well-defined mineral notes. It’s a vintage that showcases all the splendor of the Vernon hillside.

Wine rated (2026 guide) 96/100

Rated estate (2026 guide): 3*Stars (These represent the pinnacle of French winemaking. The finest terroirs cultivated by the greatest winemakers. Tasting their wine is always a magical experience.)

About the wine:

The Condrieu trio serves as a model, with something to suit every taste: Les Chaillées de l'Enfer, with its sunny and complex profile, blending aromas of white and yellow fruits, flowers, and citrus.

About the estate:

Emma Amsellem is finding her footing at the helm of the estate, smoothly taking over from her mother, Christine Vernay, whose work since 1996 has been widely praised. While the estate is intimately linked to the history of the Condrieu appellation (it remains its most brilliant representative), it also offers a remarkable selection of reds, whose aging processes have been refined in recent years. Tasting a Condrieu vintage here that’s a good decade old helps one understand the potential of this terroir, which is all too often overshadowed by the varietal notes of Viognier. The energy and potential found in the estate’s wines set the standard.

Rated Estate (2026 Guide) Recommended (Wine producer recommended by Wine Spectator)

About the wine:

It features a lush style, displaying expert balance and vibrancy. It offers concentrated layers of soft, fleshy apricot, peach, and mango, which come alive with a savory acidity. White tea tannins frame the rich, tangy finish, which stretches on endlessly. Excellent. Best enjoyed now through 2030.

Rated Winery (2025 Guide) Recommended

About the wine:

The only Vernay wine in the lineup bottled in an Alsatian-style bottle, which makes me wonder if that says anything about the wine’s style? It may just be my imagination influenced by the shape of the bottle, but there seems to be a slight hint of petrol alongside the more characteristic aromas of juicy apricot and gardenia. This wine is very intense and concentrated, but also fresher than many Condrieus.

About the wine:

The 2023 Condrieu Les Chaillées de L'Enfer initially reveals pronounced aromas of honeysuckle, chamomile, ripe apricot, and peach. Subtle pastry notes add to its aromatic complexity. Medium-bodied, fresh, and concentrated, this exceptional 2023 wine finishes with a long, fragrant aftertaste.
