Fear not though, this is one of the finest examples we have come across.<\/p>\n<p>Domaine R\u00e9mi\u00a0Niero\u00a0is one of the original\u00a0domaines\u00a0of the\u00a0Condrieu\u00a0appellation. Today\u00a0the third generation are at the helm here, continuing the long tradition of making crystalline, pure wines. The\u00a0domaine\u00a0has recently fully converted to organic farming and\u00a0this\u00a0care translates through to their pristine wines.<\/p>\n<p>This wine is in a beautiful place right now. It is so sleek and sophisticated with a gorgeous core of fruit and violets,\u00a0and\u00a0a lovely streak of acidity throughout. An undercurrent of peppery, smoky, grilled meats really adds to the complexity and entices you to go back for another sip.<\/p>\n<p>This 2017 vintage is singing currently, and with just a handful of 6-packs remaining,\u00a0and the powerful 2018 vintage in the wings, we implore you to\u00a0pop into one of the shops or order on our website and\u00a0snaffle some of this\u00a0before it&#8217;s gone.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background: #fafafa; padding: 5px;\">\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #800000;\"><strong>2017 SAINT JOSEPH Bois Prieur Domaine R\u00e9mi Niero <\/strong><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.leaandsandeman.co.uk\/wine\/2017-SAINT-JOSEPH-Bois-Prieur-Domaine-Remi-Niero-33078-00.html\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-33125\" src=\"https:\/\/blog-2207a.kxcdn.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Remi-Niero-BOis-Prieur-Saint-Joseph.png\" alt=\"Remi Niero Bois Prieur Saint-Joseph\" width=\"500\" height=\"141\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<div style=\"padding-left: 25px; padding-right: 25px; line-height: 25px;\">\n<p>&#8216;<em>Light purple in the glass.
