Château Grillet 2006 - Château Grillet

This exceptional white wine from the northern Rhône Valley comes from the legendary Château Grillet appellation, one of the smallest AOCs in France, dedicated exclusively to the Viognier grape variety. Produced by the prestigious Château Grillet estate, this 2006 vintage perfectly illustrates the uniqueness and rarity of this unique terroir, nestled on steep hillsides overlooking the Rhône.

On tasting, the 2006 Château Grillet reveals a luminous golden color. The intense and refined nose reveals notes of white peach, apricot, white flowers, and honey, enriched by subtle hints of almond and flint due to its ageing. The palate is full-bodied, elegant, and perfectly balanced, combining aromatic richness and mineral freshness. The long and persistent finish reveals all the complexity and depth of this great Rhône white wine.

This 2006 Château Grillet is the perfect accompaniment to roast lobster, poultry in a cream sauce, fine fish, or mature cheeses. Served between 12 and 14°C, it expresses its full aromatic richness after a light airing. With nearly twenty years of aging, this wine is now remarkably mature, offering a rare and precious experience.

A prestigious white wine from the Rhône, produced in tiny quantities, which embodies the nobility of Viognier, the rarity of the Château Grillet appellation, and the finesse of the 2006 vintage.
