The Levet family premiered a small lot of Condrieu in the 2019 vintage, from a planting of 20-year-old Viognier in the vineyard La Maraze, in the commune of Saint-Michel-sur-Rhône. Vinified and aged half in steel and half in 600-liter demi-muids (two new barrels and one five-year-old barrel), this 2020 shows marked freshness for the appellation, with the oak playing a minor supporting role amidst the attractive quinine and apricot flavors.
