"New vintage"

“The first vintage of this wine, the 2020 Crozes Hermitage Vie Magne, is made from the rounded stones and red clays found around the town of Beaumont. It is beautifully full-bodied and round, with subtle notes of pepper and plenty of ripe cherries, a full-bodied palate, and a light dusting of supple tannins on the finish. It should be a pleasure to drink over the next few years.” (Wine Advocate 2022). • Please note: limited quantities available.

About the wine:

The first vintage of this wine, the 2020 Crozes Hermitage Vie Magne, is made from grapes grown on rounded stones and red clay soils around the town of Beaumont. It is beautifully full-bodied and round, with subtle notes of pepper and plenty of ripe cherries, a full-bodied palate, and a light dusting of supple tannins on the finish. It should be a pleasure to drink over the next few years.

About the estate:

Tucked away on a small cul-de-sac in the heart of the village of Condrieu, Domaine Niero has just nine hectares of vineyards: four in Condrieu, two in Côte Rôtie, a little over one in Saint-Joseph, and a little less than 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 express the distinct terroirs from which they come.

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) Selected (Please note that this guide is a ranking, and as such, all the estates listed here—even those without a star—represent, in our view, the pinnacle of French winemaking.)

About the estate:

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