A beautifully balanced Rhône-inspired white from Washington’s Yakima Valley, Dineen’s Condriesque captures the rare harmony of freshness and richness—showcasing the expressive character of Viognier and Roussanne in equal measure.
Taste
Lush yet vibrant, this aromatic white opens with notes of ripe peach, apricot, and golden apple layered with honeysuckle, citrus blossom, and a hint of warm baking spice. The palate is textured and round with a gentle creaminess from time spent sur lie, while bright acidity keeps everything lifted and fresh through a long, elegant finish.
About the Winery/Winemaker
Dineen Vineyards is a family-owned estate winery rooted in the Yakima Valley, one of Washington’s premier winegrowing regions. The Dineen family has farmed their estate vineyard since 2001, earning a reputation for meticulously grown fruit and wines that reflect both the site and the character of Rhône varietals that thrive in the region’s warm days and cool evenings. Their approach focuses on thoughtful blending and careful barrel work to highlight both richness and structure.
Why We Love It
Rhône-style white blends are some of the most food-friendly wines out there, and this bottle is a perfect example. Fermenting Viognier and Roussanne together creates a beautiful balance of aromatic lift and silky texture—making it equally at home with roasted chicken, seafood, creamy pastas, or simply a sunny afternoon on the patio.
