One of Condrieu's finest parcels, Les Terrasses du Palat showcases Viognier's opulent potential on south-facing decomposed granite. Villard's meticulous approach—including low-temperature barrel fermentation with native yeasts and nearly a year on lees—results in a wine of remarkable generosity and textural complexity. The 2023 captures the effusive stone fruit and floral character the appellation is famous for, while maintaining elegant balance and surprising freshness.

"The 2023 Condrieu Les Terasses du Palat begins to bloom with pronounced apricot, white peach, blossom and cedar. Softly textured and concentrated, the 2023 is an inviting and varietally transparent Condrieu, lining up the sapid finish with discernible fresh vitality." —Nicolas Greinacher
