Condrieu: Holiday Apartments and Houses
The Condrieu wine appellation is produced exclusively from the Viognier grape variety, whose area of origin is Condrieu. The Condrieu wine-growing region covers around 180 hectares of productive vineyards on steep slopes cultivated in chaillées. Every year on 1 May, the two appellations jointly hold the event “Vin et Rigotte de Condrieu en fête”.
When planning a stay in Condrieu, you may wish to find a holiday apartment.
