Vinous
This cuvée, made from different parcels, is complex on the nose, with floral notes evoking violets and acacia flowers, as well as aromas of yellow fruit, such as apricot and peach. A rich, full-bodied white on the palate, sustained by a lovely freshness. Condrieu lovers are sure to appreciate it! Limited quantities available.

Expert opinion
RVF - La Revue du Vin de France / Guide des Meilleurs Vins de France
Domaine noté (guide 2021) Sélectionné (We remind you that this guide is a prize list and as such, all the estates that appear in it, even without a star, represent, in our eyes, the excellence of French production).
About the domain :
The estate is located in Chavanay, in the hamlet of La Ribaudy, birthplace of the Faury family. Lionel Faury cultivates 18 hectares of Condrieu, Saint-Joseph, Côte-Rôtie and Collines rhodaniennes IGP appellations. We've particularly enjoyed the Saint-Josephs in recent vintages, which prove that the northern part of the appellation has real potential.
