Condrieu “Luminescence”

« The treasures are born in the very heart of the most legendary of the illustrious plots of the Maison Guigal. These precious bottles are as coveted as they are rare and have benefited from extreme care at every stage of the process, from the vine to the cellars. They are the sole incarnation of the inspiration and inheritance of centuries of viticulture in an exceptional terroir »
Produced only four times in the history of the estate, Condrieu “Luminescence” is made from an early harvest of overripe grapes. A wine with great aromatic expression, it is mellow and full -bodied on the palate, without being heavy or cloying.
