DESCRIPTION

The Les Éguets Condrieu from Domaine Gérin is a luxurious and expressive white wine made from 100% Viognier. Grown on the steep granite slopes of Condrieu, this cuvée captures the appellation’s hallmark richness and aromatic complexity. Combining ripe stone fruit, floral lift, and refreshing minerality, it offers a harmonious and elegant expression of this prestigious Northern Rhône terroir.

EYE

This wine reveals a bright golden-yellow color with subtle green tints. Its brilliance and viscosity in the glass suggest both freshness and concentration.

NOSE

The bouquet is captivating and layered, with aromas of apricot, peach, and pear. Floral notes of honeysuckle and violet mingle with hints of almond, spice, and a delicate mineral touch.

MOUTH

On the palate, it is round and silky, with flavors of ripe stone fruits, citrus, and a touch of vanilla. The lively acidity and mineral backbone provide balance, leading to a long, elegant, and aromatic finish.

PAIRING

Perfect with scallops, lobster, or roasted poultry with cream sauce. It also pairs beautifully with foie gras, soft cheeses, or enjoyed on its own for a refined moment of indulgence.

Domaine Jean-Michel Gérin

Domaine Jean-Michel Gérin is a family-run estate based in the heart of the Northern Rhône, producing acclaimed wines from Côte-Rôtie and Condrieu. With a focus on meticulous vineyard work and precise winemaking, the Gérin family creates wines that are pure, balanced, and true to their origin. Les Éguets is one of the domaine’s signature Condrieu cuvées, celebrated for its depth and finesse.

Rhône

The Rhône Valley is one of France's great red-wine regions, famous for powerful Syrah in the north and generous Grenache-based blends in the south, from Côte-Rôtie and Hermitage to Châteauneuf-du-Pape.

Geographic position: Southeastern France, along the Rhône river for about 200 km from Vienne, south of Lyon, to Avignon. The narrow, steep Northern Rhône contrasts with the wide, sunny Southern Rhône, which makes most of the region's wine.

Origin & history: Greek traders brought vines up the Rhône from Marseille, and the Romans planted the slopes around Vienne. In the 14th century the popes in Avignon built a summer castle at Châteauneuf-du-Pape and promoted local wines. Baron Le Roy's rules for Châteauneuf in the 1920s inspired the French AOC system.

Main appellations & varieties: North: Côte-Rôtie, Condrieu, Saint-Joseph, Hermitage, Crozes-Hermitage and Cornas, from Syrah, Viognier, Marsanne and Roussanne. South: Côtes du Rhône, Châteauneuf-du-Pape, Gigondas, Vacqueyras, Rasteau, Tavel and Ventoux, mainly Grenache, Syrah and Mourvèdre.

Food specialties: Lyon charcuterie, Bresse chicken, Picodon goat cheese, truffles from the Tricastin, lamb with herbs, olives and tapenade, and nougat from Montélimar.
