Images of Château-Grillet

Château-Grillet is the name of the producer, a property with its own appellation to the south-west of Condrieu. It’s surrounded here by its vineyards.

 

The oldest part of the building dates back to 1760

 

The property is comprised of several parts of different ages

 

The vineyards, all Viognier, rise up in a vertiginous amphitheatre behind the property

 

The upper triangular section in this photo was recently acquired by Château-Grillet and is used for their new Condrieu ‘Carthery’ (the buildings pictured don’t belong to them)
