Vinous
Hédonism is more fresh and fruity, making this a St. Joseph that is accessible in its youth. With notes of black and red fruit on both the nose and palate, accompanied by a touch of licorice, this Saint Joseph is full-bodied and fine. An immediate pleasure. Limited quantities available.

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.
