"A Viognier full of freshness"

Viognier takes center stage in this “Les Grandes Parcelles” vintage. Grown on sandy granite soil at the edge of the Condrieu appellation at an elevation of over 300 meters, this grape variety imparts freshness and aromatic purity to the wine thanks to the high altitude. With a nose of peach and exotic fruits and a lively yet velvety palate, it’s enough to make your mouth water! Enjoy it now or within the next 1 to 3 years.

Winery rated 1*Star (A high-quality, recommendable production that lives up to what one would expect from its appellation(s))

About the estate:

This estate has some lovely vineyards in the Côte Blonde area, including one on the Goutay, near their home, but their best wine comes from Les Rochains, on the schist soils near La Landonne. The production still lacks consistency, but the style is authentic, bearing the hallmark of whole-cluster fermentation. The 2017 vintage showed great character this year.

Wine rated (2024 guide) 89/100 (2021 vintage)

Rated Estate (2024 Guide) 1*Star (Up-and-coming stars or high-quality winemakers producing wines of a good standard—you won’t be disappointed when you taste the wines from these estates)

About the estate:

The Garon wines beautifully highlight the diversity of the Côte-Rôtie terroirs. We are captivated by the estate’s winemaking style, which stands out for its refined texture. The fruit is well-defined, and the aging profiles gain depth depending on the terroirs and the estate’s skill in managing oak. Among the various cuvées, La Sybarine reflects the character of the granitic soils; Les Triotes, located on the Côte Blonde next to Lancement, is made from schist; and Les Rochins is crafted from the brown schist of the Côte Brune.
